We are currently running a Demo of IPAM on a Demo version of NPM.  I don't want to go through the process of import/adding subnets on our production version of NPM again.  Is there anyway to export the address list out of the demo version and re-import into the production version should we decide to purchase?

    Hello kbrookov.

    As a developer at SolarWinds, I have migrated IPAM data from one database to another using SQL Management Studio. When taking proper precautions, I think this is the most effective and accurate solution.

    All IPAM database tables in Orion start with "IPAM_". These are the steps I recall taking. If you're not comfortable with these tools, we could explore alternate solutions in this post.

    1. Ensure both installs have EXACTLY the same IPAM version
    2. Stop All SolarWinds services
    3. Destination: Use SQL Management Studio to backup the Orion Database
    4. Destination: Rename all “IPAM_” tables to “IPAM_OLD_”
    5. Source: Use SQL Management Studio to migrate "IPAM_" tables from one database server to another.
    6. Source: Start All SolarWinds Services

    Would this work for you?  http://www.solarwinds.com/NetPerfMon/SolarWinds/OrionIPAMAGExportingIPAddressesSettings.htm

     

    To export IP addresses and settings from Orion IPAM:
    1.     Click IP Address Manager in the Modules menu bar.
    2.     Click Manage Subnets & IP Addresses.
    3.     If you want to export an entire group,click the parent group of the group you want to export in the network organization pane on the left, and then check the group in the Network View on the right.
    4.     If you want to export an entire supernet,click a parent group or supernet of the supernet you want to export in the network organization pane on the left, and then check the supernets in the Network View on the right.
    Note: Before Orion IPAM can export any supernet, the supernet must be populated with at least one defined subnet.
    5.     If you want to export an entire subnet,click a parent group or supernet of the subnet you want to export in the network organization pane on the left, and then check the subnets in the Network View on the right.
    Note: Orion IPAM can only export subnets that have been properly defined and populated with IP addresses.
    6.     If you want to export IP addresses,click the parent subnet of the IP address you want to export in the network organization pane on the left, and then check the IP addresses to export in the Network View on the right.
    7.     Click Export in the toolbar.
    8.     Check the columns you want to export.
    Note:The IPv4 Address column is selected automatically, and it becomes the first column in the generated spreadsheet. Each additional setting or property you check becomes an additional column in the generated spreadsheet.
    9.     Click Export.
    10.     When you are prompted to open or save the file, click Save.
    11.     Provide an appropriate file name and location for the generated spreadsheet, and then click Save.
