Default Splitting a SmartCenter in two

Hello,
I have a question regarding both disaster recovery and backup/restore procedures: but I do not want to crosspost in all directories... yet...

My point is: I have a distributed R65 installed on a GreenSmartCenter with two (DarkGreen and LighGreen) fw modules connected to it.
I have another bright new empty R65 RedSmartCenter, with a different IP and different name, without any fw module managed yet.

I'd like to split the modules on both gateways => get DarkGreen managed by RedSmartCenter... without the need to recreate greens objects and policies: that's the challenge.

(Possibly, I wouldn't like to have to re-SIC the modules but it is optionnal since when migrated, the module won't go back to its original GreenSmartCenter again).


What should I use to import objects and rulebase from GreenSC to RedSC efficiently ?

I tried cp_merge with object...5.C and DarkGreenPolicy.W files: all NAT configuration get screwed...

What else should I try: upgrade_export and then import ? But what about the certificates, the new IP address, the SIC... anything else for future ?


odumper/ofiler ? Not officially supported nor maintained since a long time ...


Any advice appreciated.
Cheers.
