Migrate Hardware Reconciliation Translation Lists

If you choose not to migrate the Hardware Reconciliation translation lists using the Migration Utility, you migrate the lists manually. You analyze the Main Translation List Query Report to make this decision.

Release 12.8 replaces multiple translation lists of the same type with normalization rules for Model, Manufacturer, and Operating System.

Use the Main Translation List Query Report data during the manual migration of translation lists to normalization rules.

Follow these steps:

1. Follow the instructions for creating normalization rules in the Data Normalization section of the Administration Guide.
2. Use the information in the Main Translation List Query Report to create the normalization rules.

   Note: Merge all of the lists of the same type, eliminate duplicate entries, and migrate the combined list to the corresponding normalization rules.
