2. [Install and configure AyaNova](ops-install.md). For quick testing on a single computer the [Windows single](ops-install-windows-single.md) setup may be easiest.
3. The next step is to [login](ay-start-login.md), request or install a [license](adm-license.md) and if are trying out AyaNova for the first time follow the [evaluation trial guide](ay-evaluate.md).
4. While testing AyaNova make use of the relevant Help docs by selecting the Help menu option from any area in AyaNova to go to the specific help documentation for that feature.
5. Once you are familiar with AyaNova 8 perform a test migration from AyaNova 7. We have two separate migration guides, a technical guide for the person [performing the migration](ops-import-v7.md) and a separate guide for the business administrator [setting up AyaNova 8 business settings](ay-biz-admin-migrate-v7.md) after migration.

## Running the migration
- Avoid future problems: If you haven't already, read the above carefully
- Multi-user only: If migrating from a networked multi-user AyaNova 7.xx installation, now is the time to ensure all users are out and networked Generator service is stopped. **Do not proceed until this is verified or the data may be corrupted**
- [Download](https://www.ayanova.com/download.htm) and run the V8 Migrate plugin installer on the computer with AyaNova that will be doing the migration (ideally the AyaNova 7 database server if applicable)
- Login to AyaNova 7.xx as _the_ Administrator / manager account, it's required to be this exact account, not another one
- Avoid future problems: If you haven't already, read _all_ of this document before proceeding
- Multi-user only: If migrating from a networked multi-user AyaNova 7.6+ installation, now is the time to ensure all users are out and networked Generator service is stopped. **Do not proceed until this is verified or the data may be corrupted**
- Login to AyaNova 7.6+ as _the_ Administrator / manager account, it's required to be this exact account, not another one
- Select the "V8 Migrate" plugin in AyaNova 7 from the main window plugin menu and the login and server URL dialog will open
- Enter the URL of your AyaNova 8 server. There is a "Test URL" button to optionally confirm if you have entered the correct address or not.
- Enter your AyaNova 8 SuperUser account login credentials. No other account is permitted to perform this operation. The default SuperUser account login name is "superuser" and password is "l3tm3in" if it has not been changed. (you _really_ should change it as soon as possible)
- Enter your AyaNova 8 SuperUser account login credentials. No other account is permitted to perform this operation. The default SuperUser account login name is "superuser" and password is "l3tm3in" if it has not been changed.
- A form will popup and show the progress of the Migration operation. There is no easy way to estimate how long this will take which is why several test migrations should be done before the final migration. Time of migration depends on the network latency and speed between the V8 Migrate plugin and the AyaNova 8 server as well as the number and complexity of objects entered into AyaNova and the quantity and size of files that may need to be uploaded.
- When the migrate is finished you will be able to login to V8 and start [setting things up](ay-biz-admin-migrate-v7.md)
