How to Migrate from r12.x

Complete the following procedures to migrate from r12.x to 12.51:

Review the installation and upgrade considerations in the Policy Server Release Notes.
(Optional) If your environment includes multiple instances of smkeydatabase, synchronize all instances. Part of the Policy Server upgrade includes migrating all content in the smkeydatabase to the certificate data store.
Review the sections in Before You Upgrade the Policy Server.
Upgrade an r12.x Policy Server to 12.51.
Upgrade an r12.x Web Agent to 12.51.
Upgrade the remaining r12.x Policy Servers and Web Agents to 12.51, respectively.
Upgrade the r12.x policy and key stores to 12.51.
Upgrade the r12.x Administrative UI.
If required, use the Administrative UI to save existing reports locally and remove the r12.x Report Server and report database from the environment. The simplest path to an 12.51 reporting environment is to install and configure a new Report Server and report database.
