SCOrch Migration Toolkit

Yesterday Microsoft released the System Center Orchestrator Migration Toolkit, enabling you to migrate integration packs, standard activities, and runbooks from System Center 2012 – Orchestrator to Azure Automation and Service Management Automation.  

Tools included:

  • Integration Pack Converter
    This tool converts integration packs that were created using the Orchestrator Integration Toolkit to integration modules based on Windows PowerShell that can be imported into Azure Automation or Service Management Automation. Using the tool’s wizard, you can select the activities in the integration pack that will be converted to cmdlets in the integration module. Placeholders are created for monitor activities that are not supported in Azure Automation or Service Management Automation.

  • Standard Activities module
    Integration module that contains all of the standard activities used in Orchestrator Runbooks that can be imported into Azure Automation or Service Management Automation. This module must be installed in your environment prior to importing any runbook converted with the Runbook Converter.

  • Runbook Converter
    This tool converts Orchestrator runbooks into graphical runbooks that can be imported into Azure Automation.

This toolkit is still in beta, so test it before you put it into production. Toolkit can be downloaded from here.
