Figure 2 TCP ports in use during migration

NOTE: Insight Control uses the following encryption types:

SSL RSA with RC4 128 MD5

SSL RSA with RC4 128 SHA

TLS RSA with AES 128 CBC SHA cipher suites. To enable the support of AES 256 and FIPS 140-2 cipher suites on server migration with strong cipher, use the utility: <Insight Control server migration Installation Folder>/bin/cipherutil.cmd

Disabling antivirus software

For optimal performance during migration, verify that real-time scanning is temporarily disabled. Also verify that no antivirus scans are running or are scheduled to run while the migration is performed on the application station, source server, or virtual machine hosts.

Generating static or dynamic certificates

Static certificates are used when you run the server migration Source Agent manually on the source server. However, dynamic certificates are generated and used when you use Insight Control server migration to automatically deploy agents to the source and destination servers. HP recommends that the agents be deployed automatically using Insight Control server migration.

Installing ProLiant Support Packs

PSPs contain sets of drivers to get a new ProLiant destination server running quickly after a migration. Windows PSP executables can automatically be installed at the end of a Windows X2P migration.

For Windows X2P migrations, upload the PSP you plan to use on the Upload Drivers tab of the server migration UI. Also, Windows PSPs can be installed manually after migration.

For Linux X2P migrations, you must manually apply the Linux PSP to the destination server after the migration is complete.

Installing Service Pack for ProLiant

SPP contains sets of drivers and firmwares to get a new ProLiant Gen8 destination server running quickly after a migration. SPP is installed automatically at the end of a Windows X2P migration.

For Windows X2P migrations, upload the SPP you plan to use on the Upload Drivers tab of the server migration UI. You can also manually install Windows SPP after server migration
