A quesition about the GAE migration tool

[cc]

I see that "Migrate to High Replication" actually make your old application ID an "alias" for the new one.
But we all know Google App Engine only allowed free user creat 10 applications.
If I use this migration tool, does it means now I can only have 9 applicaions now ?

If it is so, I think it is better to delete the application with Master/Slave mode and create a new HRD one for me.

Once the migration is complete, you can safely delete the old Application. The app doesnt need to exist for the 'alias' to continue to function.* 

In fact you can just disable it too (provided its within the free quota limits) and it will NOT count against your 10 limit. Only active applications count. 

* In effect its a setting on the new application - saying "this application is also accessible via xxxxx" - rather than being a redirect set on the old application.

Thanks for your reply.

At first I thought that this migration tool is just like tool to convert the application from Master/Slave mode to HRD mode.

Now I understand it is an tool which create a new HRD application and copy the data from the older application and set the older one as an entrance of the new app.

I think I will choose to delete the one with the Master/Slave mode and create a new app directly.

I really hope google can allow users to reuse th apps name which was deleted before. At present, once you delete an app, you can not use its name again.

Note if you do that, you dont get to setup the alias. You will loose the old AppID completely.
