I need some help.

 

I have 2 software-based controllers on my network both on docker containers recently upgraded to the new version from a VERY old one. I had to essentially redo everything, including setting up the AP from scratch, due to my own fault. I setup a temporary software controller and would like to migrate back to the old one but I cant figure out how to as the menu items have changed.

 

1 controller is working and functioning under the new version 5.13.23 this is fine, however I'm trying to migrate this site to another controller but I cant find any of the older menu items to export configuration.

 

2 controller is working but empty I can only import but its also running on version 5.13.23

Hi @Daniel604,

 

After upgrading the firmware of the Omada Controller to V5.9, significant changes have been made to the Controller's Web GUI. The most notable change is the addition of a Global View. So please go to the Global view and do the Site/Controller migration.

Please check the detailed article here: The significant changes in the Web GUI before and after Omada Controller v5.9

The advantage of the Docker containers is that if something like this happens you can spin down the new controller container and spin up the old controller.  You should take note of the Device Admin credentials from the new controller and apply them to the old controller if it fails to adopt the devices.

 

In the new controller world, you'd have 1 controller with multiple sites.  So build the new controller, then import your sites one at a time into it.

 

For instance, here's my container list from one of my NAS (I keep some older ones around for forum questions):
