Notes

• If neither the --export or --import options are specified, the application is migrated FROM the remote grid.
• If the original application is running, it will be stopped prior to the migration. Upon completing the migration, the new application will be started.
• If the original application is not running, the new application will not be started.
• SSH agent and agent forwarding must be enabled on the client machine for the remote grid access to work.
• --nocompress option is useful when migrating applications that have very large volumes.
• - see 'help app config' for online help on properties and resources. The full and per-property reset are not supported (--reset and -d <prop>).
• By default application ACL's are not preserved during migration.
