Migrate the r6.x Policies
If you plan on using the r12.0 SP2 deployment to protect r6.x resources, we recommend migrating your policy store data to the r12.0 SP2 policy store.
Although not required, if you migrate the policy store data before you begin managing the r12.0 SP2 policy store, you can avoid the possibility of conflicts associated with duplicate objects.
To migrate policies
- Do one of the following:
- If you are using Enterprise Policy Management applications in the r6.x environment, use the r6.x version of the XPSExport utility to export the r6.x policy store data.
- If you are not using Enterprise Policy Management applications in the r6.x environment, use the r6.x version of the smobjimport utility to export the r6.x policy store data.
Note: For more information about the r6.x version of the smobjimport utility, see the r6.x Policy Server Installation Guide. For more information about the r6.x version of the XPSExport utility, see the Policy Server Administration Guide.
- Do one of the following:
- If you are using Enterprise Policy Management applications in the r6.x environment, use the r12.0 SP2 version of the XPSImport utility to import the policy data into the r12.0 SP2 policy store.
- If you are not using Enterprise Policy Management applications in the r6.x environment, use the r12.0 SP2 version of the smobjimport utility to import the policy data into the r12.0 SP2 policy store.
Note: For more information about the r12.0 SP2 version of the smobjimport and XPSImport utilities, see the Policy Server Administration Guide.
