How to change appliance 5230 role from media server to master server

[munday]

Hi All

My environment are below
master server nbu 7.6.0.3 on solaris10
media server is appliance 5230

If I want to change the appliance role from media server to master server.
what can I do ?

You'll have to re-image the appliance to factory state.  If you want the new master (appliance) to take the name of the old master, then you'll need someone, or a partner company, certified in catalog manipulation to help you.

Seems you need to migrate the Solaris master to the Appliance?
(Wondering what the reason is behind this decision?)

This is not a DIY job. 

You need a Catalog Manipulation specialist.

Hi Marianne

yes, I want to migrate my master server to appliance because I want to reduce ma cost and I already have capacity license.
