Bulk Upload Existing Mappings

Bulk Upload imports application and server mappings you already hold, typically from a CMDB. If you have an existing record of which servers belong to which applications, this is the fastest way to get that knowledge into Dr Migrate, and it primes the AI for everything that follows.

The Bulk Upload screen with the Download Pre-Filled Template and Upload Completed Template actions.
The Bulk Upload screen: download the pre-filled template, then upload it completed.

Two actions

The screen presents two actions (download, then upload):

Action What it does
Download Pre-Filled Template A spreadsheet pre-populated with all discovered servers, plus OS details, VM descriptions and SQL detection flags, so you're never starting from a blank sheet.
Upload Completed Template Once you've added your application assignments, upload it and Dr Migrate auto-assigns every server to its application in one step.

The workflow

Download the pre-filled template

Click Download Pre-Filled Template. The spreadsheet already lists every discovered server with its OS details, VM description and SQL detection flags, so you only need to add the application each server belongs to.

Add your application assignments

Fill in the application name against each server you can account for. You don't need to map everything; even a partial sheet is valuable.

Upload the completed template

Click Upload Completed Template. Dr Migrate reads your assignments and maps every listed server to its application automatically.

Run Auto-Detect next

With real mappings in place, run Auto-Detect to close the remaining gaps, learning from what you uploaded.

Even 10% of the environment is a great first step. A partial bulk upload doesn't just map those servers; it gives the AI real-world examples that measurably improve the accuracy of Auto-Detect across the rest of the estate.

Bulk Upload uses the same data path as CMDB Import in Data Sources → Import. You can start from either place; the result is the same.

Next step

After uploading, run Auto-Detect to extend coverage, then refine in Server Inventory.
