Migrating OpenPages environments

If your organization has multiple OpenPages® environments, you can migrate both the configuration information and the metadata from one environment to another. Migration means exporting from a source environment and importing into a target environment.

You can use the Export Configuration tool to create a migration file, which can then be imported by using the Import Configuration tool. You can also use Import Configuration to import files in XML format. For more information, see Supported migration items.

Tip: You can also use ObjectManager, a command-line interface (CLI) tool, to migrate configuration changes. For more information, see Load data into OpenPages with ObjectManager.

An OpenPages environment is a set of OpenPages servers that target a single database instance, inclusive of that database instance. For example, your organization might have Development, UAT, and Production environments.

The environment from which you want to export data is referred to as the source and the environment into which you want to import data is referred to as the target.

The source and target environments must have the same version and patch level of OpenPages.
