What you need

  • The Source Snare Central v6 or v7 must be updated to the latest available version.
  • The Destination Snare Central v7 must be updated to the latest available version.
  • Both the Source and Destination servers will need to be full licensed.

Hardware Requirements

The Source and Destination servers need to be on the same network and must be able to communicate with each other via port 8730. This port is used for an rsync server (running on the Destination server) that copies the data from the Source to the Destination. If the two servers cannot communicate directly, then the migration is not possible.

Software Updates

In order to take advantage of the server migration process both the Source Snare Central v6 and the Destination Snare Central v7 will need to be running the latest released versions to ensure the required tools are available.

Note: These updates and the ISO image can be downloaded from your Snare Secure Area (if applicable). Please speak to your Snare Support Representative if you are unsure how to access this page.

Snare Central License

The Destination Server will need a valid license installed and working before the migration can be completed. A new license for your v7 server can be obtained from your Snare Account Representative or from the customer portal, SLDM at https://customer.intersectalliance.com. It is recommended to use a time-limited hardware unlocked trial license initially to confirm the Destination Server works correctly on the hardware. Once everything is working as expected, and the data has been migrated successfully, a full license can be provided.
