Situation

How do I associate an existing user's compliance data to a new account

Resolution

In order to migrate existing compliance and ACL data to a new account, you need to:

Log in as the VPC Admin and select the Administration tab, next you will need to search for the NEW user that you would like to migrate compliance data to, then search for the existing users whose compliance and ACL data you want to be mapped to the new account. Only those users with existing compliance data will be available for selection. It is recommended that you perform a backup of the database before you migrate the data. By clicking Save, you will eliminate the compliance history associated with the selected, existing user accounts. In addition, you will delete the ACL data tied to those same accounts. All records of compliance and individual ACL associations for those users will be mapped to the new account.

Additional Information

Formerly known as NETIQKB71932

Role and group memberships for the existing accounts will remain unaffected by the migration. ACL associations based on group membership will need to be updated manually.
 
To complete the migration, you must restart the VPC Services. If multiple migrations are being executed, wait until all are finished before restarting the Services.
