This commit adds a complete solution for migrating all resources from one AAP instance to another, including: - migrate_aap_instance.yml: Main migration playbook that orchestrates the full export, import, and validation process across three phases - migration_vars.yml.example: Example configuration file with all available options, including vault encryption examples and multiple use cases - MIGRATION_GUIDE.md: Comprehensive 600+ line documentation covering: * Quick start guide and prerequisites * Detailed phase-by-phase migration process * All configuration options with examples * Best practices for before, during, and after migration * Troubleshooting common issues * Advanced scenarios (multi-stage, cross-version, selective resource) - Updated README.md with migration section linking to the guide The migration playbook supports: - 46+ AAP resource types (Controller, EDA, Gateway) - Full or partial migrations (by organization or resource) - Post-migration validation and drift detection - Ansible Vault for credential security - Structured or flattened export formats - Optional cleanup of unmanaged resources This leverages existing collection roles (filetree_create, filetree_read, object_diff, dispatch) to provide a turnkey migration solution.
