Migration VSE 8.7 to VSE 8.8

[HerbSmith]

The manaul references a process to migrate my ePO policies from VSE 8.7 to VSE 8.8.  But it does not state what happens to the old VSE 8.7 policies.

Are they still there an usable?  And I have both VSE 8.7 and VSE 8.8 policies available, much like VSE 8.5 and VSE 8.7. 

Or does it remove the old VSE 8.7 policies.

Thanks

Expect 8.7i policies to be unchanged.

Is there an error in the epopolicymigration.exe?

I get the message

... it says it cannot run on the epo server ... but it runs only on the epo server

(and migration runs fine on the epo server)

On command line, browse to VSE880LML and run ePOPolicyMigration.exe with /password=sql_admin_password for example c:\>vse880lml\epopolicymigration.exe /password="password" that's it. Hope it work for you.

Migration works without problems

But the message says the tool can not run on the epo server and this is not true, perhaps only the translation is buggy.

I don't understand your language on message box but on my side that say must run on ePO server (see attach file)

Ok then the german translation is incorrect, the german message box says "tool can not be executed on a server with epo installed"

Now there is a knowledgebase article about this issue

But I get that error when I run it on the ePo server with the switch for netapp storage

C:\VSE880LML>ePOPolicyMigration.exe /password=DBpassword  /netapp

Does this have to be run on the server where ePo is installed or the database server for the ePo?
