Org Split

[Warren_Moore]

I'm looking for the most painless way to move approximately 140 networks (some of which may be active) to a different Organization. There isn't a way to do this through the portal, but in reading I saw Org Splits were performed by Meraki Support at one point.

Does support still do Org Splits?

[Nakul J]

Yes that is correct! Meraki Support will be willing to do this for you. Please feel free to create a case. Here is more information from this documentation:

https://documentation.meraki.com/General_Administration/Organizations_and_Networks/Organization_Split_Overview_and_FAQ#Initiating_an_Organization_Split

Hope this helps!

Yup, we've done some test Org Splits with support recently before we do the same for our production Org.

Do make sure you have a good read of the page Nakul linked as there are caveats on certain org setups/devices

My advice to you is before you do the split, you need to sit down with your team and logically plan out on paper the end state of your Orgs, how they should look when you reach your ideal state. Naming conventions, tags, auto VPN considerations, what goes where, & who has access to what. Also, audit trails. When you do a split all of the change logs up until the split remain in the parent org and the day of the split the change logs start in the new org. I would also do an admin and access audit BEFORE the split(s) or else you will be doing audits for access on each org after the split, loads of fun. Pay particular attention to any camera and sensor admins as these don't get moved in a split.
