Use Case: How do I identify and plan for
changes to my production environment without changing my live production
environment?
In some circumstances, you might want to identify and plan for production changes
before comitting to changing your live production environment.
You might want to identify and plan for production changes without immediately
applying them or scheduling downtime. By creating a duplicate environment you can
review changes before applying them and modifying your live production environment.
The duplicate environment is also useful for troubleshooting any issues outside of
your live environment.
- Create a duplicate environment by migrating your existing vRA 7.6 production environment to a new vRA 7.6 dev environment.
- Disable the agents on the dev environment.
- Perform aVMware Aria Automation8 migration assessment on the 7.6 dev environment using the Migration Assistant.
- Review the assessment results to identify what changes are needed on your 7.6 production environment.
- Apply the changes to your vRA 7.6 production environment.
- Migrate your production environment toVMware Aria Automation8.
