    ufmapl31 (config) # ufm data backup ufm-backup-tlv-cluster.zip

  2. [On the Master Node] Create a backup] Upload the backup from the UFM 3.1 Appliance to a remote server.

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    ufmapl31 (config) # ufm data upload ufm-backup-tlv-cluster.zip scp://<username>:<password>@<hostname>/tmp/

  3. [On the Master Node] Create a backup] Download the backup from the remote server to the new NDR cluster (UFM 3.5 Appliance).

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    ufmapl35 (config) # ufm data fetch scp://<username>:<password>@<hostname>/tmp/ufm-backup-tlv-cluster.zip

  4. [On the Master Node] Create a backup] Restore the UFM data to the new NDR cluster (UFM 3.5 Appliance).

    Copy
    Copied!
                

    ufmapl35 (config) # ufm data restore ufm-backup-tlv-cluster.zip

  5. [On the Master and Standby Nodes] Create a backup] Configure the UFM 3.5 Appliance to run in NDR mode.

    Copy

    Copied!
                

    ufmapl31 (config) # no ufm start

  7. [On the Master Node] Create a backup] Start the new NDR cluster on the UFM 3.5 Appliance.
