Migrate Data from Security Director Insights 23.1R1 HA to 24.1R1 HA

You can migrate data from Security Director Insights 23.1R1 HA to 24.1R1 HA:

Before You Begin

  • Both Security Director Insights Release 23.1R1 and Security Director Insights Release 24.1R1 must be active at the same time.

  • Install Security Director Insights Release 23.1 hot patch V3 on the 23.1R1 system from the Software Download site. You must download the hot patch and upgrade. This provides background scripts and processes for you to connect and retrieve data from the Security Director Insights 23.1R1 node. See Upgrade Security Director Insights

  • Install Security Director Insights Release 24.1R1 and ensure that the node is up. See Deploy and Configure Security Director Insights

To migrate data:

  1. In Security Director Insights 23.1R1, disable HA.
  2. Go to Security Director Insights 23.1R1 primary node, upgrade with latest 23.1R1 hot patch.

    This installs data migration utilities in 23.1R1 node.

  3. Deploy two new standalone 24.1R1 Security Director Insights nodes. One as master node, and another as 2nd node.
    Note:

    Do not enable HA.

  4. Migrate data from Security Director Insights 23.1R1 standalone to 24.1R1 standalone.
    1. SSH to 24.1R1 master node.

    2. Go to <applications> mode.

    3. Set migration configuration:

      (applications)# set data-migration config ${SDI_23.1_master_node_IP}

    4. Start data migration:

      (applications)# set data-migration start

    5. Check data migration progress:

      # show data-migration status

      Upon successful migration, the status will be displayed as Finished.

    6. On 24.1R1 primary node, enable HA to setup 24.1R1 HA.
