Object manager information is maintained for object managers in a network indicating a device type of devices in the network managed by the object managers and device information providing information on the devices in the network, wherein the object managers have access to the object manager information. A determination is made from the object manager information a second object manager comprising one of the object managers in the network managing a same device type as the devices managed by the first object manager. The first and second object managers communicate to establish a migration relationship between the first and the second object managers.
