Dear Community,
on weekend, I was migrating M-100 to M-200 and though it might be beneficial to share how it went.
Migration scenario:
2x M-100 in HA in Panorama Mode + 2 log collector groups (1 group for M-500 log collectors and 1 group fop M-600 log collectors). The target was to replace 2x M-100 with 2x M-200 with minimum impact and with no other change in configuration or design.
Migration steps:
1.) I installed both M-200 with basic settings (management interface IP address/DNS setting/NTP setting/Time Zone/Hostname), added

I had a different scenario for my LCs after upgrading the Panoramas but got the same "Config push failed as one or more disks have a size of zero bytes".
Your step 5 fixed it for me as well. Thanks

Hi Kavel,
Do not mind me asking, the support license/device management license uploaded to the new panorama, is it a new license or a migration license obtained from Palo Alto?
Thank you
Regards

Hello @alexander
thanks for message!
Regarding device management license, when I was ordering M-200, I asked for below migration license which did not cost anything and allowed me to convert existing M-100 device management license to M-200.
PAN-M-200-P-MIG-M100-M200-1K (Panorama license migration from M-100 to M-200, 1K devices)
Regarding support, M-200 came with own support. There was no possibility to make transfer from M-100.
Kind Regards

Hello Pavel,
Thank you for the reply.
If i get what you are saying, the migration license is only needed if you have some period left and do not intend to buy a new license.
If the new panorama comes with a new set of device management license that should work as well. Also allow me to clarify, once you've switch the management interface from the old panorama to the new panorama, the devices in the managed device summary will automatically show connected am i right?
Thank you
Regards

Hello @alexander
thank you for reply.
The device management license is perpetual. It does not have any expiration. By using conversion SKU you can save money by not ordering device management license in new Panorama. If you already have device management license in new Panorama, then you do not need to go for conversion.
Regarding second question, the answer is yes. It was smooth. All Firewalls showed up as connected within a minute after management interface change. Please note that I have done this migration with PAN-OS 9.1 that did not have secure onboarding yet.
Kind Regards
Pavel
