Once the above issues have been cleared, proceed to next Tab - Warnings

...

Items that are highlighted under warnings can be missing e164 numbers, Intercom partitions and CSS's, Devices without Lines, Lines without Devices etc. If these require updating, select the blue button which will take you to the item in question. Otherwise, if the issue is expected and no action is required, select the red button to Disable Rule/ Clear the issue.

Once Warnings are resolved, proceed to next Tab - Site Suggestions which is where we create the sites to be used during the migration 

Site Allocation

Now we need to rectify the remaining options + new issues occuring post Site allocation

  1. Image Modified

    Site XXXXXX requires country code - Solution: Individually select country from Blue Button Drop Down ‘Select Country Code’

Tip - if there are many items the same - as above with Country Code allocation, to save time, use Bulk Change option to update

  1. There are 1 CUCM-DEVICE-POOL that are not allocated to a site. - Solution: Select the ‘View’ to the left of item to bring up link to Object Browser - then allocate this device pool to a site + set Change At to During Site Load as it is now allocated to a site.

...

The reason that this shows up under issues is that this particular DP was not template matched as a Site. Another fix for this could be to add template regex as per Site Suggestions creation above + run Allocation step

  1. There are 5 EM Profiles that are not allocated to a site. - Solution: Select the ‘View’ to the left of item to bring up links to object browser for each of them - then in object browser allocate to site for each individually

...

When All issues are attended to - Re Validate to move on to Clone/ Prepare Step

...

Pre Load Validation Issues

Before the Load step, where all configuration is pushed to Target cluster is performed, there is a validation required that will flag any dependency issues that must be rectified before proceedding proceeding with the load. In the below sample migration, we can see that there are a number of Issues that needs recificationfixing.

To the left of the screen is the item that triggered the issue. Now we need to decide what to do to clear it. If we look at the first line where Device Pool has been identified as belonging to a site has a dependent object that would be loaded at the Before Any Sites Loaded step which will not work.
