Migration Using Commvault Cloud

End-users and administrators can transfer backed up data from one computer to another by using the Metallic console migration.

Before You Begin

Gather the following information before you use the Metallic console migration:

• Both the source computer and the destination computer must have the laptop package installed.

• Credentials to log on to the Metallic software.

• Determine the name of the source computer (the computer to transfer the data from).

• The source and the destination computer must have the same OS versions.

• On the source computer, the Well-Known folders must be backed up.

• Determine the Well-Known folders that you want to transfer. If the source computer has multiple user profiles, you can transfer the Well-Known folders of any user profile from the source computer to the destination computer. Before migration, verify that the destination computer must have the same user profile as present in the source computer.
