I can upgrade the PPME to 5.7 SP1 version but can you send me list of commands to perform i know the basic commands to setup select target and commit it. Will that remain same or do i need to use powermigclust command instead ? If you can send me an example for single cluster group that would be great help

dynamox · Answer

i don't have any example to share with you. Yes you do need to use powermigclust to create the cluster resources. The user guide is very straightforward.
