• Migration tool to convert Orchestrator Integration toolkit based Integration packs to Power. Shell modules • Shipped converted Power. Shell modules for the Microsoft released and supported Integration packs • Provides Integration Module that contains equivalent cmdlets for Orchestrator’s collection of Standard Activities. Download Migration Toolkit Download Converted Modules

Runbook Migration Steps 1. Import the converted integration modules § For Microsoft supported Integration packs - Download the converted Integration modules § For custom Integration packs – Use the IP converter tool to convert into an integration module 2. Import the Standard Activities modules 3. Export the Runbook from SCO and import into SMA/Azure Automation § 4. Import process will perform the necessary mapping/conversion from SCO runbooks to Power.
