Migrate Checkpoint 80.10

[SCHERRMANN]

Hello,

I try a migration from checkpoint 8R0.10.

I've updated to the last bersion (1.1.12) and I see option "VERSION 80.10" in the checkpoint tab, but this option is grayed out.

I try with R80 option but It does nothing after "upload" is clicked.

Do I miss something ?

Thanks.

I've deleted the project created before the upgrade and redone the whole procedure.

It's fine now.

@dgildelaig , I noticed a new procedure on the Expedition (Exped 1.1.66.2) file import page for Checkpoint R80 or greater.  involves uploading and running a .jar file on the mgmt server.  do you have any documentation for the new procedure or is it that simple?  Also, how do I explain any risks with running the .jar file on a client's mgmt server?

Check the link we provide to download the jar file.

It is a file provided by Checkpoint, and they explain how to place it in their system and how to consume it.

I guess that if they see the source of the file, they can get some comfort as it is Chekpoint's software to patch Checkpoints software.

Thank you @dgildelaig , I thought the .jar file was produced by paloalto.  The client did not recognize the file's origination and I'm not familiar with Checkpoint.  I could not have wished for a better answer.
