csm 4.4 deployment best practices

[Cengiz Savas]

Hello everyone,

I am looking for best practices how to migrate CSMANAGER 4.4 in a productive environment.

We have in the network about 40 ASA deployed and configured with FW and VPN (ras and s2s).

We are using ASDM as of today.

Whats is recommended or best practice?

Importing all ASA and tune object database and policies or tuning the config before importing productive ASA in CSManager?

Questions like;

- how to import object database and overlapping objects?

- is there maybe a step by step migration document available?

is in my mind.

Hope to be clear in my request. I know its a very generela question but i need some recommendations how to start my migration form ASDM to CSManager.
