There are two options here that I can think of,
Option 1:
- Install the CTE agent on the new DB server and deploy with policy the same keys.
Option 2:
- backup the database and define the rules with Backup process and Action - Permit and Apply Key so the data will be decrypt during backup process then restore to the new server.
We can't decrypt the data with CTE agent.

Subject: Encrypted database files decryption and migration scenarios
Hi Team, A customer's is evaluating GDE for CTE Database Files encryption, As part of customer conversation we are having, customer's asking "What happened if I have to move my database to another server? Do I have to decrypt my database encrypted files before moving to another server?" "Can I decrypt my encrypted database files without using GDE using only the encryption key?" Any help will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
