Doors.NET to Borealis Database Conversion Procedure
1.0 Introduction
Keri Systems White Glove Conversion procedure will handle the complete conversion of your Doors.NET database to Borealis.
The White Glove Conversion procedure will be completed entirely by Keri Systems conversion experts so you will not have to worry about a thing. The conversion will copy across cardholders, credentials (including multiple credentials), controllers and door settings, time schedules and holidays. In addition, v6.0.0.0 also supports the importing of access group names and access rights assignment to cardholders).
Keri Systems will pre-configure your Borealis conversion – this will include pre-checks and configuring your system & sites. Keri Systems will also configure operators and claim communication hubs on your behalf. We will then complete the conversion and move your existing data to your new Borealis cloud solution.
Important Notes:
- Importing access group/access rights information is not supported if any cardholders in the Doors.NET system has more than one access group assigned.
- The Doors.NET to Borealis conversion supports NXT, NXT-MSC and PXL-500 controller types are supported. True Mercury hardware support will be included in the future.
- If you are importing Keri NXT controllers, all controllers must be programmed with an IP address and if the controllers were manually added to Doors.NET they must also have the correct MAC address.
- Once the conversion is completed, NXT-MSC controllers will require a memory reset. Standard Keri NXT controllers will also require a Basic reset. Controller resets are performed from the controller screen in Borealis.
- Following the successful conversion, the controllers will not be fully functional until your Borealis cloud subscription payment has been processed.
- If your system uses Dual Verification/Card + PIN, PINS will not be included if there are duplicate PINs in Doors.NET. The conversion tool will only import unique PINs.
