I’ve recently started to work in the new IDE, and I was wondering if there was an efficient way of moving old devices to the new platform.
I have ~140 devices I need to shift over and have currently been manually deleting them from the old models and then assigning them to the new device groups. When I tried to unassign and assign existing devices under old models to a device group in the new IDE, I would receive a “resource not found” error.
I would appreciate any tips that would expedite this process.
The migration wizard only allows you to migrate an entire model’s devices. Are the devices, you want to migrate, production or development? The way to move a specific development device to impCentral is either unassign it (as you suggested earlier), or assign it to a model and then migrate.
The Migration Wizard would prompt you for a Model that you want to migrate from, and then you can choose either a new Product or an existing Product as the destination of the code and/or devices. It would automatically create a workspace to contain your code/devices within that product.
If you have multiple Models in IDE that belong to the same product line. This is your chance to “consolidate” them (by migrating them into the same product). In the future, we will provide a feature to merge product but you should take take advantage of this opportunity now to keep your repository clean in impCentral.
To clarify some more, I attached some screenshots below to show the entire Migration flow.
After you click on the Migration button, you will go through a step-by-step wizard before the actual migration happens. There are couple different options, e.g. you can migrate code only, migrate code and devices, delete the model after migration, receive an code archive and etc.
You will receive an email notification when the migration is completed.
