Migrate existing config from 4.18 to 4.50

[jaganathdora]

We are in process of migrating our existing Apigee environment from 4.18 to 4.50. As we cannot go directly from 4.18 to 4.50 (Due to Infra and other issues) we are building a parallel environment. This env should be replica of existing env.

In order to mimic the env we are using the same config file which we used for setting up 4.18.

Once this is done can we use backup and restore to restore the configs ?

Will there be any issues with it as the version number is different and we are not doing a inplace upgrade ?

also is there a way to restore existing org, env, virtual config etc from one version to another ?

You will notice some issues as the IPs will be different.

I would suggest to do data migration once your new infra is ready.

@Priyadarshi Ajitav Jena can you pl suggest how we can do that, if there are any steps or links please share.

Apigee community has an app named Apigee migration tool. You can use that.

@Priyadarshi Ajitav Jena I looked at this doc but it doesn't support migration of Environment resources such as target servers, virtualhosts, and keystores etc.

For those you can write simple scripts with management api call.
