Migration Pre-Flight Checks Reference
Review 20-step migration validation checks before starting destination apply to reduce failure risk.
Critical Check Buckets
- License and slot eligibility
- SSH host/port/auth reachability
- Web root and uploads write access
- Database connection and target existence
- Source-destination port and unzip capability
High Impact Failures
- Destination SSH endpoint unreachable - verify host, port, firewall.
- Destination unzip fail - ensure unzip availability and workspace permissions.
- Destination DB connection fail - check DB host/user/password and grants.
Run pre-flight checklist before each major migration window, not only first-time setup.
