Prepare the Old API Portal
1. Start the old API Portal Cloud Controller.
2. If the old API Portal is installed in a clustered, high-availability setup, make sure all nodes are running and accessible to the ZooKeeper ensemble. Then register each node with the parent node by running this command:
acc> add node logical_node_name IP_address_or_host_name
[@port] user_name password
3. Run this command:
acc> startall
4. Run this command to make sure all API Portal components are running:
acc> list
5. For each tenant in the old API Portal, you will have to create a tenant in the new API Portal. List all tenants in the old API Portal by running this command:
acc> list tenants
6. Back up each old tenant’s API and related data; user data; API Portal document storage data, including all access rights; and collaboration data to a file. The file extension .acb will automatically be added to each file.
The table below explains how to back up each old tenant’s data to a file for each old product release.

7. If you created a customized view of your old API Portal, back up the view as follows:
a. Open API Portal in a browser and log on with Administrator credentials.
b. Go to the Administration page. In the Views page under the Customization section, hover over the name of the custom view and click Backup. API Portal creates a ZIP file that contains the customized view.
c. Save the ZIP file.
