When migrating a physical system to an emulated system, all the data of the physical system must be transferred to the emulated system. The sections below provide some hints about how this could be performed. However, the section does not describe a recommended migration path. Migrating a system depends very much on the specific customer environment and the best path has to be defined on a case-by-case basis.

For consulting services supporting the migration (subject to a charge), please contact your Stromasys representative or VAR. You can find the contact information on the Stromasys web page.

• Create ufsdump archives of the filesystems on the original system that are to be migrated.
  (# ufsdump 0f <archive-filename> <disk-partition>)
• Use SFTP to copy the archive files to the Charon host system across a VPN connection or directly to the public IP address of the host system.
• Use the Charon-SSP Manager File Manager (Tools > AWS Cloud > File Manager) to rename the files to <archive-name>.vtape.
• Add the files to the Charon-SSP virtual machine configuration of the emulated system.
• Use ufsrestore on Solaris to restore the files to the correct filesystems.

Other Data Transfer Options

Depending on the customer requirements, the configuration of the original system, and the amount of data, different data transfer options may have to be applied.
