Migrate C7 to C8 but change ownership?

@bobbyD
This probably been answered but I'm out of town and hoping for a, not so complicated, solution.

I have a spare C8 and I want to upgrade my son's C7 while I'm here.
The C8 is registered to me so what is the path forward so I can upload a migration backup on his C7 and get access to it on the C8.
Full reset the C8 and login as him to get it on his account or get HE admin to move the HubId registration or do I have delete it from my account and then re-register it under his account.
Sorry, sounds messy but I'm only here for a few days.

Seems that full reset does the trick.

I was being cheap :winking_face_with_tongue:
I have services attached that hub.
If that's the only way then so be it. I'll just have to pony up with remote admin again.

Does anyone know if the Remote Admin migrates from the old hub to the new? I have that on both hubs. If I factory reset the C8 I'm hoping the RA will follow to the new one. I don't care about losing it on the C7, it's EOL.

Remote Admin is per account, not per hub. So it covers all the hubs on the same account. Including new hubs added to that account.

EDIT just did the migration again and I have ch 15 and at least one device has sent it message so far. :grin:

Got everything moved over but I noticed the ZB came back on the wrong channel, 20 instead of 15.

I updated that but I noticed the Pan ID was different too. All the ZB devices are there but no messages so far.

Very odd as I see myself with the correct original ID in a scan but it's not what's in the ZB details

This is after the migration.

Do I have to rejoin everything again?

Sorry, I know this wasn't really the topic but thought you might have a quick insight being a more knowledgeable person.
