All the sub-sites are hooked off the main site. I would have no idea how to migrate anything without migrating the main site first.
I suppose it is possible to point to the sub-sites in their current location but in logging we found it more beneficial to simply copy the content under the main site in the CMS. Are all the sub-sites built with Maven? Any that are not could move to the CMS as part of the main site.
