You can perform a temporary migration of a CommCell. Temporary migration can be useful in the following scenarios:
-
To free some space on a source CommCell.
-
When a copy of the Client(s) Metadata on one (source) CommCell is maintained on another CommCell. In this case, the Client continues to remain in the original CommServe, but the metadata records associated with the Client are restored to another CommCell.
-
To perform maintenance operation on a source server.
The clients and configuration settings that are temporarily migrated exist in the source CommCell and destination CommCell. The properties and associations of clients and configurations in the destination CommCell exist as in the source CommCell.
To perform temporary migration, see Export Metadata from the Source CommCell and Import Metadata on the Destination CommCell.
