99% I bet it something stupidly simple and you have been looking at it so long, 
you can’t see it.  Happens all of the time even with experienced engineers! 

Subject: [AFMUG] UniFi migrate to cloud key

If a unifi network is already managed in a unifi server and then someone comes 
along and plugs in a cloud key on the LAN, can you then just adopt all the 
stuff into the cloud key?  Or do you have to “forget” them on the server first?

Thanks for info.  That all makes sense.

You can either forget them and re-adopt on the cloud key or you can back up the 
old controller and restore it to the cloud key (they should both be running the 
same software version if you do that.) If you forget and re-adopt you’ll have 
to reconfigure everything. If you backup and restore, all the config migrates 
and it all works like it did before. If the old controller is dead and you 
don’t have a backup you’ll need to physically reset all the devices unless you 
know the device SSH credentials that were configured in the old controller. If 
you know that, you can adopt them on the new controller without having to 
reset.
