PG2(on RPi) migration to eISY PG3x questions

[LFMc]

Hi All,

I finally purchased my eISY and will run it on a separate IP from my ISY994i-ZS.  I did a test migration by restoring the backup to the eISY and it seemed to go well. The PG3x console shows most of my plug-ins but they are all unmanaged with "no details available".

Now I am ready to do a new restore to the eISY and get the PG3x server working as my primary controller. I can find little on the PG2 to 3x migrate. It seems the PG3x server only has a "migrate" for PG3  or a restore for 3x backups.  

So the question is, how do I get all my PG2 plug in settings over to my PG3x?  Do I have to setup up everything manually? I assumed I would have to purchase them from the PG3x store, but is that before I can "migrate" the settings, if that is possible? 

Thanks for any help to get me going in the right direction.

Before I give up and just add all my PG2 plugins manually into PG3x, I thought I would ask again for input. Anyone have any ideas?

PG3 had the ability to read a PG2 backup file and attempt to migrate PG2 plug-ins to PG3, but it would only work in a few cases.  

PG3x only has the ability to migrate plug-ins from PG3.   PG2 was EOL'd before PG3x was available so no effort was made to migrate from a system that had been EOL'd for a while.
