based on the documentation to upgrade Nexus2 to Nexus3 we can use the **Upgrade Agent** but now I am wondering is it possible to use it for data migration, my use case is, I have already Nexus3 with data inside, for the other project we are using Nexus2 which now we want to move data to Nexus3, just wondering if migrating in this way cause some configuration issue or overriding blob in Nexus3.

Does anyone tried it for migrating data from one instance to already existed instance with data inside?

I am using the community edition and not the PRO.
