Hello Om,

 

Thank you for response.

 

As mentioned in document , we have to go with Azure SQL Managed instance to upgrade from MSSQL to AZure SQL. But We have selected Azure SQL single instance option so we will go with general thingworx migration process like import the existing entries and data after connecting to Azure SQL.

 

Regards,

Hello Om,

 

Migrated from Thingworx 8.5.1 MSSQL to Thingworx 8.5.1 Azure SQL successfully. Observed License file name is "ignored_license_capability_response" but License subsystem is showing that License expires in 726days. Imported all the entities and data into thingworx successfully. Do we need to generate the license key again?

I have opened support case: 15742125

Latha
