Go to the [Migration jobs](https://console.cloud.google.com/dbmigration/migrations) page.\n2. Click the migration job that represents the migration that you want to promote. The **Migration job details** page appears.\n\n3. After the full dump phase has completed and the migration job is in CDC phase, the option for promotion is available.\n4.\n Immediately after transitioning to the CDC phase, depending on the size of the dump, there may be a long replication delay because the AlloyDB for PostgreSQL destination instance catches up on changes that occurred during the dump and load.\n\n Wait for the replication delay to trend down significantly, ideally on the\n order of minutes or seconds. The replication delay is available for review on\n the migration job page.\n5. After the replication delay is at a minimum, you can initiate the promotion. To avoid data loss, make sure to:\n 1. **Stop all writes, running scripts, and client connections to the source\n database**. The downtime period begins here.\n 2. Wait until the replication delay is at zero, which means that the migration job has processed all outstanding changes.\n\n | You can promote a migration even if the replication delay isn't at zero. This can reduce the database downtime, but may affect the accuracy of the data in the destination.\n6. In the **Migration job details** page, click **Promote**.\n7. In the **Promote migration job?** window, click **Promote**.\n8. The migration job stops reading from the source and the substatus is `Promote in progress`. At this point, you cannot stop or undo the promotion process.\n9. The destination instance is promoted to a primary writeable instance. The migration job status is `Completed`.\n10. The application can now be connected to the AlloyDB for PostgreSQL instance and the migration job can be safely deleted.\n\nWhen you promote migration jobs that have failed or were manually stopped during CDC phase, data on the source and the\ndestination can be inconsistent."]]
