Mirantis Migration Tool Guide

The Mirantis Migration Tool (MMT) provides a tool with which you can migrate metadata and image binaries to a new Kubernetes or Swarm MSR cluster. It is quite flexible, in that you can switch cluster orchestrators and deployment methods during the migration process, as well as transition to the same version or opt for an upgrade to a later major, minor, or patch version.

Note

MMT does not support migrating to 2.9.x target systems.
