- Click “Import configuration file…” — Choose a SQLmig configuration file in JSON format.
- Choose the mode — Replace deletes the current configuration in favor of the imported file. Merge keeps the current settings and adds the imported servers.
- Confirm the import — SQLmig tells you how many servers were added.
| Mode | Behavior |
|---|---|
| Replace | The imported configuration becomes the active configuration. |
| Merge | The current global settings are preserved, and the imported servers are added. A duplicate name automatically receives “(imported)”. |
When the file comes from another operating system, some local paths that have no meaning on the new machine may be cleared. After transferring to a new computer, check the certificate and client paths, then retest the servers before starting an operation.
