Abstract
A computer-implemented system and method for generating a correlation directed acyclic graph (CDAG) of configurations of a software-defined network (SDN) component for migration from a source computing environment to a destination computing environment uses a configuration export file of the SDN component to draw the CDAG. Correlation keys defined in the configuration export file are used to draw graph nodes. Contents associated with the correlation keys and template entries are used to draw edges between at least some of the graph nodes. The CDAG with the graph nodes and the edges is then displayed.
