Migration of the packages from fusion-inventory to glpi-inventory

Hello,

I'm on GLPI 10.0.6 and fusion inventory plugin 10.0.6+1.1

I would like to migrate to GLPI inventory and GLPI Agent.

If I install GLPI Inventory plugin what is going to happen?
Deploy Packages is going to migrate do GLPI Inventory plugin?

Right know I have fusion inventory agent 2.5.2 installed in the clients, what are the steps to migrate without loose tasks, groups and deploy packages?

Hi ComLu

(as I said on Telegram, but to share my answer here too)

GlpiInventory plugin should migrate tasks during its installation. I'm not fully sure, but you'll probably have to recreate your Deploy tasks or at least re-upload files. I think the uploaded files are not migrated, but I may be wrong.
For the agent, you should probably use the VBS (see documentation and it is available on github project) as it proposes an option to uninstall FI agent before installing GLPI-Agent. This is handy for such migration.

Anyway, you definitively should try the migration on a test server: install a test server as your prod server is, importing the database. Try to migrate one agent and point it to your test server, try a Deploy task before migration from that test server. Then migrate and test it.
