When to Migrate Data

The primary purpose of the data migration solution is to migrate log data and configuration settings from one LogLogic LMI appliance to another.

It is particularly useful when upgrading from earlier LogLogic appliance models 
to newer models.

When migrating data, the following network connection configurations are supported:

  • eth0 to eth0
  • bond0 to bond0
  • split mode (eth0 continues to collect data during migration from eth1 to eth1)
    Important: Do not perform backup or restore operations when data migration is in progress.
Supported Data Migration Path: H4 to H4R1 and H4R2

Note: Similar to the LX820 models, data migration is not supported on LX825 models. For MX models migrating data to an LX4025R1 appliance, you will need to increase the global data retention on LX4025R1 to match that of the MX before performing data migration.
