Description

Requirement to move specific on-prem machine catalog to Citrix cloud. 


Instructions

You will need to first download the Citrix Migration tool located here on your DDC's - https://www.citrix.com/downloads/citrix-cloud/product-software/automated-configuration.html

Once downloaded and installed, you will need to use the following commands: 

Export-CvadAcToFile
This will export on-premises files to YAML files which will be needed to import to Citrix Cloud. The files should be located under my documents\citrix\autoconfi folder in file explorer. 
The MachineCatalog.yml contains list of machine catalogs. 

Before you can import the configuration to Citrix Cloud,  you must have your CustomerInfo.yml file with your customer ID, client ID, and the secret key information included. For more information on how to retrieve your customer ID, client ID and secret key, see Generating the customer ID, client ID, and secret key (https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-daas/migrate.html#generating-the-customer-id-client-id-and-secret-key ).
For information on how to add this information to the CustomerInfo.yml file, see Populating customer info file (
https://docs.citrix.com/en-us/citrix-daas/migrate.html#populating-customer-info-file).

Once you have CustomerInfo.yml updated, please run the below command to import a specific machine catalog: 

Merge-CvadAcToSite  -MachineCatalogs -IncludeByName 'name_of_Machine_Catalog'

You can also run the same command with with the parameter "CheckMode" which will test running the command without making changes into production. This will help confirm that the command will run successfully without issues. 

 Merge-CvadAcToSite -MachineCatalogs -IncludeByName "Name_of_machine_catlog" -CheckMode
