The `migrate` command lets you migrate your Chronograf configuration store.

By default, Chronograf is delivered with BoltDB as a data store. For information on migrating from BoltDB to an etcd cluster as a data store,
see [Migrating to a Chronograf HA configuration](/chronograf/v1/administration/migrate-to-high-availability).

## Usage

```
chronoctl migrate [flags]
```

## Flags

|Flag|        |                                                                   Description                                                                   |Input type|

|`-f`|`--from`|  Full path to BoltDB file or etcd (e.g. `bolt:///path/to/chronograf-v1.db` or `etcd://user:pass@localhost:2379` (default: `chronograf-v1.db`)   |  string  |
|`-t`| `--to` |Full path to BoltDB file or etcd (e.g. `bolt:///path/to/chronograf-v1.db` or `etcd://user:pass@localhost:2379` (default: `etcd://localhost:2379`)|  string  |

#### Provide etcd authentication credentials

If authentication is enabled on `etcd`, use the standard URI basic
authentication format to define a username and password. For example:

```sh
etcd://username:password@localhost:2379
```

#### Provide etcd TLS credentials

If TLS is enabled on `etcd`, provide your TLS certificate credentials using
the following query parameters in your etcd URL:

* **cert**: Path to client certificate file or PEM file
* **key**: Path to client key file
* **ca**: Path to trusted CA certificates

```sh
etcd://127.0.0.1:2379?cert=/tmp/client.crt&key=/tst/client.key&ca=/tst/ca.crt
```
