Before migrating, you should install the latest build of the current version that you are using.
Check the version on your server by going to the Help> About menu on the client console using the nlserver pdump command.
Before starting a migration process, you must back up your data.
As the migration procedure is sensitive, we strongly recommend reading this document thoroughly before starting the procedure.
The migration procedure must be carried out on all servers and in a particular order.
In the case of a standalone platform (single machine mode), the application is migrated in its entirety.
In the case of a standard platform (enterprise), the migration steps are as follows:
In the case of a Cloud Messaging platform, the execution servers are hosted at Adobe Campaign. Please contact Adobe Campaign to coordinate migration between different servers.
In the case of a Power Booster or Power Cluster platform, the migration steps are as follows:
In v7, internal and admin operator connection must be secured by a password. We strongly recommend assigning passwords to these accounts and all operator accounts, before migration. If you have not specified a password for internal, you will not be able to connect. To assign a password to internal, enter the following command:
nlserver config -internalpassword
The internal password must be identical for all the tracking servers. For more information, refer to the Internal identifier and About permissions sections.
