Overview

When performing a phased migration, it is recommended that a number of object types are changed to NOT be site specific. This will minimise any issues encountered during a phased migration prepare step due to dependency issues,

These changes are best performed, using Bulk Change, after site allocations and initial validations but before the prepare migration step.

Note that these objects below are recommendation only and there may be other objects that should be included/ removed for specific migrations

Object Change 1

The following objects are recommended to be moved to the BASL (Before Any Sites Loaded) step and Site Allocation set to NULL

these objects will be loaded to target WxC-DI cluster before the first site specific objects.

CUCM-REGION
CUCM-CSS
CUCM-ROUTE-PARTITION
CUCM-TRANSLATION-PATTERN
CUCM-CALLED-PARTY-TRANSFORMATION-PATTERN
CUCM-CALLING-PARTY-TRANSFORMATION-PATTERN
