Application Migration section of Patch My PC Publisher
Applies to: Patch My PC Publisher V3.x
The Application Migration section of the Patch My PC (PMPC) Publisher Cloud tab is used to help you migrate applications from Microsoft Configuration Manager to Intune using the Migration feature of PMPC Cloud.
Important
You will be unable to enable the Application Migration feature until you have connected Publisher to your PMPC Cloud company as detailed in Connect Publisher to Patch My PC Cloud
When Application Migration is enabled, Publisher inventories ConfigMgr applications and makes them available for migration to Intune through PMPC Cloud.
Discovery runs automatically every 60 minutes. Migration status and the number of discovered applications are shown for visibility and validation.
When an app migration inventory runs, Publisher saves the inventoried ConfigMgr results in the Publishing Service's installation folder under the Database subfolder.
This folder contains two files:
AppMigration.db stores the app migration inventory data and processing state.
existingApps.json contains a JSON copy of the discovery data.
Important
For reliability, consider excluding the AppMigration.db file from antivirus or endpoint protection scanning. This prevents the AppMigration.db file from being locked during scheduled scans, which can cause inventory or migration operations to fail.
