Hi Rob, It looks like the manual is out of date. The latest version of the ArchonMigrator tool https://github.com/archivesspace/ArchonMigrator supports 1.4.2 (the last release before the container management features were added). Other than that, I would say you have the right approach. Archon -> ASpace 1.4.2 -> the current version of ASpace. I do this semi-regularly, and it works well.
Now for the geeky questions. :-) Brian — Brian Harrington Migration Specialist LYRASIS brian.harring...@lyrasis.org Skype: abbistani > On Jul 7, 2017, at 9:47 AM, Rob Green <rob.gr...@uni.edu> wrote: > > Hi!
