With the current website software, once a migration node is assigned to a server it can't be moved by a sysop. This will
eventually be fixed, but for now, only Jim WB6NIL can move a node to another server as it has to be done with database
SQL commands. I can't do this for you as I'm not cognizant of the structure of the underlying database. Please send am
off-list message to WB6NIL requesting the node be moved from one server to another.

For now its very helpful that you figure out in advance which server you want to assign the node to when doing a migration.

The website software does not concern itself with private nodes. In this
case it is better to set this server up as register only unless you are an advanced asterisk user.
When you migrate the other two nodes, that server will be set to register only by default.
