Migrate
from
a
Panorama
Virtual
Appliance
to
an
M
‐
100
Appliance
On
a
Panorama
virtual
appliance
that
has
a
logging
rate
of
over
10,000
logs
per
second,
migrating
to
the
M
‐
100
appliance
will
provide
improved
response
time
on
the
web
interface
and
speedier
execution
of
reports.
The
M
‐
100
appliance
also
provides
up
to
4TB
of
RAID
storage.
Use
the
instructions
in
the
following
topics
to
migrate
the
configuration
from
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
over
to
an
M
‐
100 appliance.
Prerequisites
for
Migrating
to
an
M
‐
100
Appliance
The
following
are
prerequisites
for
migrating
your
current
subscription:
Purchase
an
M
‐
100
appliance.
Obtain
a
migration
upgrade
and
purchase
a
new
subscription
that
includes
software
and
hardware
support.
Provide
your
sales
representative
the
serial
number
of
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
you
will
phase
out,
the
desired
support
terms
for
the
M
‐
100
appliance,
the
auth
‐
code
you
received
when
you
purchased
the
appliance,
and
the
effective
date
for
the
migration.
On
the
effective
date,
Palo
Alto
Networks
will
automatically
apply
the
associated
authorization
codes
to
the
serial
number
of
your
management
appliance,
phase
out
support
for
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance,
and
trigger
support
for
the
M
‐
100
appliance.
Starting
at
the
effective
date,
you
will
have
a
limited
time
to
complete
the
migration.
At
the
end
of
the
period,
Palo
Alto
Networks
terminates
the
support
entitlement
on
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
and
you
can
no
longer
receive
software
or
threat
updates.
For
details
on
the
license
migration
process,
refer
to
the
Knowledge
Base
article
Plan
to
Migrate
to
an
M
‐
100
Appliance
Plan
on
completing
this
migration
during
a
maintenance
window.
Although
the
firewalls
can
buffer
the
logs
and
forward
them
to
Panorama
when
the
connection
is
reestablished,
completing
the
migration
during
a
maintenance
window
minimizes
loss
of
log
data
during
the
transition
time
when
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
goes
offline
and
the
M
‐
100
appliance
comes
online.
Consider
whether
to
maintain
access
to
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
after
completing
the
migration.
Because
the
log
format
on
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
is
incompatible
with
that
on
the
M
‐
100
appliance,
existing
log
data
cannot
migrate
over
to
the
M
‐
100
appliance.
Therefore,
to
access
the
old
logs
the
Panorama
virtual
appliance
must
remain
accessible.
Decide
whether
to
use
the
same
IP
address
on
the
M
‐
100
appliance
or
to
assign
a
new
one.
Palo
Alto
Networks
recommends
reusing
the
same
management
IP
address
to
prevent
the
need
to
reconfigure
each
managed
firewall
to
point
to
a
new
IP
address.
