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.

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-LOCATION
CUCM-REGION
CUCM-CSS
CUCM-ROUTE-PARTITION
CUCM-TRANSLATION-PATTERN
CUCM-CALLED-PARTY-TRANSFORMATION-PATTERN
CUCM-CALLING-PARTY-TRANSFORMATION-PATTERN
CUCM-VOICEMAIL-PILOT
CUCM-VOICEMAIL-PROFILE

To perform this step - select Bulk Changes, then
