System properties & System Accounts , CP's migrate from one environment to another environment

Hi ,

  We have deployed OO in new server .  Is there any way to copy all the CP, system property and system account from existing environment to new environment   with central values updated.. OO version 2020.01

    Hi,

    There is no official way to move system properties and system accounts from the old system to the new one. Furthermore, even if you were to try to move entire tables' content from the old central db to the new one you would end up with encryption key issues and missing content issues that would pretty much render your new system inoperable. 

    For the time being you can export the content packs from the old environment and import them to the new one so that you have the base structure in place in the new system and if the old central is still operational you can create a flow that iterates through the old system's configuration items and populates the values in the new system.

    Hope this helps,

    Vlad

    As per the Oo documentation on API (https://docs.microfocus.com/doc/Operations_Orchestration/2023.05/ConfigurationItemsContent) you can use GET /config-items/system-accounts api call to obtain the list of all System Accounts your user has entitlements to in the list. 

    This list can then be iterated with a list iterator and for each returned system account you can use  GET /config-items/{type}/{path} api to get the latest active values that are available in central at the time. If there are central overrides this api will return the central overrides, otherwise it will return the deployed values. 

    Regards,

    Hi,

    While it is true that the passwords for system accounts are encrypted, the encryption format is something that OO Central is able to understand and update correctly when passed through as flow variables. In the end  the new central the correct value will be added without  any 3rd party being able to read it as clear text.
