Promote Remote SEC to Primary SEC

Hello,

 

We are planning a migration from Windows 2008r2 to Windows 2016. We would like to run the two systems in parallel with the Windows 2016 host acting as a remote SEC. When ready, we'd like to decomm the 2008r2 server and promote the 2016 SEC as the primary manager. 

 

  • Does Sophos support "promoting" a remote SEC to primary?

  • Hi  

    If you have an Enterprise console with the older version than 5.5.0, I'd suggest you to first upgrade it to 5.5.1 as 5.5.0 is soon going to be expired. Once it is upgraded to the desired version, you can start the migration process for the enterprise console.  has mentioned the correct migration process. 

    The latest version on the Enterprise console is needed because if you'll be stuck at any process while migrating, you can contact Sophos support and they'll be able to help you on the problem if you have the supported version of the Sophos Enterprise console.
