We are not finding any documents which suggests to migrate one CMA at a time, we tried to run the pre upgrade verifier as same as the migration we did for R77 to R80 using below format which did not work.

./pre_upgrade_verifier -p /opt/CPmds-R80/customers/Customer123_Management_Server/CPsuite-R80/fw1/ -c R80.10 -t R80.30

Could you please suggest us how to proceed further on this? We have more than 20 CMAs configured and all have different setup. Few enabled with URL filtering, few with IPS and few with Mobile Access blade etc. So what would be the best way to migrate? Also any document to migrate one CMA at a atime?

Hi,

The first point of reference for these enhancements as introduced in R80.40 is sk156072.

Thank you Chris,

Can we use this for R80.30 as well? Because you say introduced in R80.40.

Yes post release it was also introduced via Jumbo Hotfixes for select earlier versions e.g. R80.30 JHF Take 135 (and above).

Great. Thank you Chris.
Our New MDS has already installed with JHF 191. So we are eligible for Domain migration from R80.10 to R80.30. I will start working on it and then keep this source updated.

Chris also just want to know there is no pre-upgrade verifier as such in this method right? Because no where in the SK suggests verifier.

Hi All,
I tried using sk156072 but it is prompting the below error when i run the Migrate-import command on MDS.
Ran the command in Expert mode of MDS.
#mgmt_cli migrate-export-domain domain ABCDEF_Management_Server file-path /var/log/tmp/ include-logs false
Username: xxxx
Password:
code: "generic_err_command_not_found"
message: "Requested API command: [migrate-export-domain] not found"

Executed command failed. Changes are discarded.

Please suggest me how to proceed with this.

Domain migration requires higher API version than R80.10. R80.30 and up.

Getting an error as below while trying to export from API.

Error: The parameters of mgmt_cli command should be provided in pairs (key and value).
You have provided an odd number of parameters which suggests that you are probably missing a parameter.

I ran the PUV in the current R80.10 MDS to migrate it to new R80.30. However i dont see any useful report from PUV.

In Multi-Domain Server R80 or R80.10 with enabled vSEC Controller:

Connect with SmartConsole to the Global Domain.
Delete all global Data Centers objects.
Assign the modified Global Policies.

The messages generated by the verification tools will be available in:

Note - This tool is required only when you upgrade from R77.30 (or lower) version to R80.30.

Please refer: Check Point - Installation and Upgrade Guide R80.30

So for upgrade from R80.10 to R80.30 dont we need to PUV?

Below is what i followed.


Step

Description

1

Connect to the command line on the current Multi-Domain Server.

2

Log in with the superuser credentials.

3

Log in to the Expert mode.

4

Stop all Check Point services:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsstop

5

Go to the main MDS context:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mdsenv

6

Mount the R80.30 ISO file:

[Expert@MDS:0]# mount -o loop /var/log/path_to_iso/<R80.30_Gaia>.iso /mnt/cdrom

7

Go to the installation folder in the ISO:

[Expert@MDS:0]# cd /mnt/cdrom/linux/p1_install/

8

Run the installation script:

[Expert@MDS:0]# ./mds_setup

This menu shows:

(1) Run Pre-upgrade verification only [recommended before upgrade]
(2) Backup current Multi-Domain Server
(3) Export current Multi-Domain Server
Or 'Q' to quit.

Hi Val,
We have rebuilt the VM from scratch which helped us in fixing the issues yesterday. But after migrating to VM we see it is pretty slow than usual. Memory used is around 50%, CPU is around 30% File system it is completely free. But still slow. Not sure what could be the issue. Is there any know issue reported with VM?

Thanks Val, the only mistake which i can think of is Thick provisioning instead we did Thin provisioning.
