Thanks Ray, As you said i have copied R75 (not R75.20) migration tools to the folder i created on the /var directory of the gateway i have to upgrade. I ran preupgrade verifier and it gava error about 2 custom IPS header rejection entries so i deleted them , the tool gives only Software Blade License error.
Can you explain this migrade export <path and file name> more and think i will run the command from /var/R75migration/..// . I used it as ./upgrade_export as usually also gave file name but no file created, as i do on a regular gateway.
