Question: Can I migrate Zwave devices from Hub A and Zwave devices from Hub B to the new C8 Pro? (i.e. 2 C8 hubs to 1 C8 Pro hub)

Question: Can I migrate zigbee devices from Hub C to the new C8 Pro?

No if your question has to to with addition. “Can you migrate with append?” No

You can migrate hub A to new, resulting in a new Hub A.

You can migrate hub B to new, resulting in a new Hub B.

You can migrate hub C to new, resulting in a new Hub C.

You can’t migrate to a Hub A + B +C.

I assume you have two C8s with hub mesh, and your thinking is that the Pro can just handle it all on one hub?

I mean, unless you really want to get out of hub mesh and having two hubs, you can just migrate the busiest hub to the Pro, and continue to mesh the other C8 to the Pro.

Then you could take your time moving the other C8 devices over to the Pro until you have them all on the Pro, and remove the other C8 after migration, just so you don't have a lot of devices to move at once on migration day.

Or take the time now to combine them all back onto one C8, then migrate that hub to the Pro.

One last question.

Is it correct that ALL devices (zigbee + zwave) move across in a migration?

That is, if I have all zigbee devices on one hub, and zwave devices on another hub, I have to make a decision which ones go to the new hub, and which ones do not.

No, but read below:

You can select to migrate either or both radio databases. However, you cannot migrate the zigbee radio db from one hub and the z-wave radio db from a different hub.

If you select to migrate both radio databases, then all zigbee/z-wave/virtual devices will be migrated. If you select only z-wave, then only z-wave/virtual devices will be migrated. And similarly, if you select only zigbee, then only zigbee/virtual devices will be migrated.

In all cases, ALL of your automations and integrations will be migrated. Along with all custom drivers and apps.
