Migrating data from Cisco NCS 1.1.1.24 to Prime Infrastructure 1.3 Question

[rschwart]

I am spinning up a new VM server for Prime to migrate from NCS. I have not been able to find the patch Cisco recommends to run before upgrading. My question is do I need to run this patch (ncs_patch-1.1.1.24-upgrade-12.tar.gz) if I am just gong to bring up a whole new machine and not upgrade the existing NCS? My plan is to do a back-up on the NCS and a restore from the new Prime.

Migrating from NCS 1.1.1.24 to Prime Infrastructure 1.3

To migrate to a new Prime Infrastructure 1.3 system, follow the process as described in the following two links below:

● Back Up the Data from the Existing System

● Install a New Prime Infrastructure System and Migrate the Data from the Backup

● Restoring Prime Infrastructure Database in a High Availability Environment

After some work I got a fail message mentioning ram. The VM admin did not increase the size to the same size as the previous VM. So the ram must be the same size on the new VM as the VM your getting the backup from.
