Move your data and automations from the On-Premises Control Room to the Cloud to use a Cloud-native architecture.
Requirements
- Obtain a Cloud license for every On-Premises
Control Room instance that you want to migrate to Cloud. Work with the Automation Anywhere sales, Customer
Success Manager (CSM), and partner teams to obtain the required licenses.Note: You can move data from multiple On-Premises Control Room instances to one or more Cloud Control Room instances. There is no restriction that you can only move data from a single On-Premises Control Room instance to a single Cloud Control Room. You can migrate data as needed.
- Ensure that you have the correct number of licenses in your Cloud Control Room for executing automations from your Cloud.
- Back up your data before migration. For more details, see Integrating Control Room with Git repositories.
Choose your method
Use one of the following procedures to migrate from your On-Premises Control Room instance to your Cloud Control Room instance:
Post-requisite tasks
After the migration is complete, perform the following steps:
- Open firewall rules to allow connectivity between the Cloud Control Room and the On-Premises Bot Runners.
- Test the migrated bots in the Cloud Control Room. Ensure that the bots are working as they were in your On-Premises Control Room.
- Deregister the Bot Runners from the On-Premises Control Room and register them to the Cloud Control Room.
- Decommission the On-Premises Control Room after you confirm that the Cloud Control Room can manage the workload.
- Repeat these tasks for all your On-Premises Control Room instances.
Additional considerations
Note:
- You can also use these instructions to move data between Cloud Control Room instances.
- If your current Control Room instance and account is On-Premises and is using file-licensing, convert your licenses to Cloud-licensing. See the answer to the question How do I convert customer licenses from file licensing to Cloud licensing? from the Converting from file licensing to Cloud licensing page.
