Upgrading Servers or Migrating Agents to Control Manager
Scenario 2: Migrating to a Fresh Control Manager 6.0
Installation Using the Agent Migration Tool
This scenario involves installing Control Manager 6.0 on a separate server from the
existing Control Manager server. This method allows you to slowly decommission the
previous server. See Planning Control Manager Agent Migration on page 4-10 for more
information about migrating agents.
Migrating a Control Manager 5.0/5.5 Server to a Fresh Installation
of Control Manager 6.0

product logs. The Agent Migration Tool does not support migrating reports or the
Product Directory structure from the previous server.
