Migrate notifications

You can migrate notifications from Event Notification Module (ENM).

Prerequisites:

  • The ENM database on SQL Server is running and accessible (you can connect to it).
  • Your system is using the latest version of ENM (8.3.x).

    NOTE: If you do not have ENM version 8.3.x, you will need to update it before you can migrate your existing system's notifications.

Migrating notifications from ENM

  1. In Notifications Settings, select Settings and Diagnostics, and then select Migration.
  2. Select Migrate from ENM.
  3. Connect to the ENM database using one of the following methods:
    • Enter the ENM SQL instance and database information.
    • Enable Integrated Security and then enter your user name and password.
  4. Select Test Connection to verify that you entered the correct database information.
  5. Select Start.

    6. Depending on the number of alarm notifications in ENM, the migration process may take several minutes to complete.

    NOTE: After the ENM alarm notifications are migrated, they are not committed to Notifications Settings until you select Save (step 7).

  6. (Optional) Create notifications reports and then compare the report outputs to your ENM system to determine whether all of your alarm notifications were successfully migrated.
  7. Select Save to commit the migrated alarm notifications.

After the ENM migration completes successfully, consider decommissioning ENM. See Decommisioning procedures for more information about overwriting ENM.
