How to migrate Diego apps to DEA in Bluemix?

Question

I have created a python app in my dashboard and I want to migrate it to DEA before deploying my code there. I have tried cf command cf disable-diego <APP_NAME> in CLI however, it returned Error: CF-BackendSelectionNotAuthorized - You cannot select the backend on which to run this application { "description": "You cannot select the backend on which to run this application", "error_code": "CF-BackendSelectionNotAuthorized", "code": 320005 }

I want to have my app in DEA before I deploy code there and then I'll migrate it to Diego. This is part of my testing.

Can you explain why you want to run your program on a older architecture (DEA) when you can run it on Diego? — Neeraj Krishna, Oct 07 '17 at 12:58

You probably want to contact your Bluemix provider on this. Cloud Controller has a flag that controls whether non-admins are allowed to switch between Diego and DEA, and it looks like that's disabled on your system.

DEAs are being phased out. I wonder why you need to test it on DEA first.
