Hello,

maybe someone already done this or has some great ideas how do do this with minimal manual effort

we plan to migrate our 3 vaults with linked credentials to a new RDM System but also want to migrate all credentials to pleasant password server that is also linked to RDM

the problem is we do not want to link all 10k credential entrys by hand in this migration process


regards
flo

Hello,

Which version of RDM are you using ?

I'd also like to know your data source type ?

we are using remote Desktop Manager 2022.2.12.0 at the moment

data Source is on a MS SQL Database

Hello,

Just to clarify, are your credentials already stored in the Pleasant Password Server ?

If not then I believe that unfortunately there's no way to automatically link all your sessions to their own specific set of credentials at once. You could link them all to one Pleasant Password Server entry, and leave it as "Prompt with List". However this would still mean that when prompted to choose a password, if I understand correctly, you'll have over 10k sets of credentials to choose from.

at the moment the passwords inside the RDM Database and linked to the connections

we need to migrate the existing Large Database to another instance of RDM where the passwords already stored in Pleasant Password Server

is there a way to migrate with the Passwords and Links inside RDM and than move them into the Pleasant Password Server and keep the Links this way?

Hello,

Sorry for my confusion, I just want to understand what you mean by "RDM System", because if you're using a MS SQL Server, your entries should be accessible from all instances of RDM that successfully connect to your MS SQL database.

Where (as in what data source type) will you be exporting the 3 vaults from ?

at the moment, we have an mssql Server with all 3 Vaults at one company, we need to migrate everything over to a new company where there already is an existing rdm also on a mssql the main difference is that all credential entries on the new site are inside a pleasant password server

we can not keep the mssql instance on the old site

Hello,

In that case, it is as I said, there's no way to automatically link all your sessions to their own specific set of credentials at once with a Pleasant Password Server entry. You could link them all to one Pleasant Password Server entry, and leave it as "Prompt with List" but as I mentioned this would mean that when prompted to choose a password, you'll have over 10k sets of credentials to choose from.
