Migration

Different migration scenarios for Data Protection for HCL Domino are presented.

Backups of older HCL Domino Server levels can be restored with Data Protection for HCL Domino on a newer Domino Server. However, backups of newer HCL Domino Server can be restored only to an HCL Domino Server of the same level.

For example, backups of Domino 8.5 Servers can be restored to HCL Domino 9 Servers. Backups of Domino 9 Servers can be restored only to HCL Domino 9 Servers.

The following sections provide two possible migration scenarios. The scenario that you choose depends on whether your database environment is using replicated servers. Replicated servers must be used for migration. This environment allows for a smooth transition from a Domino 8 Server to Domino 9 Server. All existing backup data is kept and available until you determine that it is no longer required.
