Hi,
We migrated hundred of workstation to Sophos Central and now realise that we will need to add sub-estates. Is there an easy way to migrate the computers from one sub-estate to another one ?
Thank you
Hi ldbeaudoin,
There are a couple of ways to do this. You can download an installer package from the desired sub-estate, then run the installer package via command line as follows.
- SophosSetup.exe --registeronly
The installer package will appear to execute as normal, but instead, will only go through the registration step. You will need to disable Tamper Protection on the device prior to running this.
The second option is to use API's to do this. You can find further guidance on this in the following article. I will also link the Postman collection you can import into the Postman application to assist with this. The Postman collection along with the video you'll find below will cover all necessary steps. The video is in German, but subtitles will give you enough guidance to follow along.
