===<big>Migrate</big>===
 
<big>You can migrate a cloud backup to a new hub, saving hours of time rebuilding rules and going through the lengthy process of excluding and including your Z-Wave devices.</big>
 
 
 
<big><span style="color: red;;">'''IMPORTANT!'''</span> If you receive a warranty replacement hub, your existing Hub Protect subscription from the defective hub will be automatically transferred to the new hub. In all other cases, your Hub Protect subscription is <span style="color: red;;">'''non-transferable'''</span> and will remain with the original hub. If you Migrate your database from a hub that is subscribed to Hub Protect, to one that is not covered by a Hub Protect subscription, you may add a new Hub Protect subscription to that hub to use cloud backups and extend the warranty. Hub Protect subscriptions may be canceled any time and will remain active until the end of the subscription period.</big>
 
 
 
#<big>Save a new cloud backup.</big>
 
#*<big>'''NOTE''': Make sure your existing hub is online and connected to the Hubitat cloud service.</big>
 
#*'''<big>If you are ''migrating from'' a Model C-5 hub, you should perform a [[Z-Wave Details|Z-Wave Repair]] <u>before</u> uploading the cloud backup that will be used to migrate.</big>'''
 
#*<big>If you have turned on '''[[Lock Code Manager#Lock code encryption|Enabled lockCode encryption]]''' in the lock driver settings, you should turn it '''OFF''' prior to saving the backup for migration to the new hub. The encryption key cannot be transferred to another hub, thus [[Lock Code Manager]] will no longer be able to read encrypted lock codes. You can turn on '''Enable lockCode encryption''' on the new hub once the migration has completed.</big>
 
#*<big>Some Model C-4 or C-5 hubs shipped to '''Australia and New Zealand with the ZWave.Me adapter''' will work with Z-Wave radio migration. Model C-4 or C-5 hubs utilizing other external Z-Wave adapters do not support Z-Wave radio migration.</big>[[File:ZWave.me_dongle.png|thumb|300x300px|none|link=https://docs.hubitat.com/images/d/d0/ZWave.me_dongle.png

#<big>Once you have completed registration of the new hub, please [[Settings|reboot]] it before continuing to the next step.</big>
 
#<big>When your new hub has completed the boot sequence and is online, select '''Settings''' from the sidebar and press the '''Backup and Restore''' card.</big>[[File:Hub migration to new hub.png|none|thumb|600x600px|link=https://docs.hubitat.com/images/4/45/Hub_migration_to_new_hub.png

#<big>When prompted check the option to '''Migrate Z-Wave Radio''' (recommended), if you would like to transfer your Z-Wave devices from the old hub without the need to manually exclude and join each device again on the new hub.</big>
 
#*<big>'''<span style="color: red;;">IMPORTANT!</span>''' When selecting the Migrate Z-Wave Radio option, you should do the following additional steps.</big>
 
#*#<big>If you are '''''migrating from''''' a '''Model C-5 hub''', you should perform a [[Z-Wave Details|Z-Wave Repair]] '''<u>before</u>''' uploading the cloud backup. If you did not do this, repeat '''Migrate Step 1''' above and then continue from '''Step 5'''.</big>
 
#*#<big>[[Z-Wave Manual#Z-Wave Radio Power|'''Disable the Z-Wave radio''']] of the hub you are '''''migrating from'''.''</big>
 
#*#<big>'''[[Settings|Shut down]]''' the hub you are '''''migrating from''''' before you press the '''Migrate''' button.

#<big>Allow the database migration process to complete.</big>
 
#*<big>'''<span style="color: red;;">IMPORTANT!</span> Hub Protect''' subscriptions are '''<span style="color: red;;">non-transferable</span>'''.

#<big>Zigbee devices are contained within the hub database and will be retained when you migrate, but it will be necessary to re-join devices to the new Zigbee radio by manually reseting them. Select '''Discover Devices''' from the [[Home|Home page]]. You '''DO NOT''' need to delete the device from the hub. The existing device will be discovered with the response, '''Found Previously Joined Devices'''. The device should resume normal operation and all of your existing rules will be intact.</big>[[File:Found Previously Joined Devices.png|none|thumb|550x550px|link=https://docs.hubitat.com/images/f/f0/Found_Previously_Joined_Devices.png]]
