The Migration Utility enables the migration of configuration data from a previous version of Data Archiving for Adabas to a newly installed version.
The installation kit for Data Archiving for Adabas includes and installs
Adabas System Coordinator. The Migration Utility is part of Adabas System
Coordinator and it is run using the corlfile
executable located in
the bin
subdirectory underneath the Adabas System Coordinator
installation directory.
For migration, the corlfile
executable is run with the
following parameters:
Parameters | Description | ||
---|---|---|---|
/m |
The |
||
from-file=<db>,<fnr> |
The |
||
to-file=<db>,<fnr> |
The |
||
/o |
By default the migration process will not write to an existing file
unless the file is empty. The optional

To use the utility on Windows, start a Command Prompt and change to to
the bin
directory underneath the new Adabas System Coordinator
installation directory:
C:\>cd \SoftwareAG\cor\vvrs\bin C:\SoftwareAG\cor\vvrs\bin>
where vrs is the newly installed Adabas System Coordinator version.
Then run the corlfile
executable with the appropriate
parameters:
C:\SoftwareAG\cor\vvrs\bin>corlfile /m from-file=1,500 to-file=1,501
To use the utility on Linux, Unix and z/OS (USS), source the Adabas
System Coordinator environment script and then change to the bin
directory underneath the new Adabas System Coordinator installation directory:
ukrdu@dali166 => cd /opt/softwareag ukrdu@dali166 => export ADABAS_ADDONS=yes ukrdu@dali166 => . bin/sagenv.new [Setting environment for Adabas System Coordinator] [Enabling Adabas Add-On products] [done] [Setting environment for Adabas Data Archiving] [done] ukrdu@dali166 => cd $CORDIR/$CORVERS/bin ukrdu@dali166 =>
Then run the corlfile
executable with the appropriate
parameters:
ukrdu@dali166 => corlfile /m from-file=1,500 to-file=1,501
After the utility has successfully completed the migration, Data Archiving for Adabas needs to be reactivated in order to use the new Repository:
Stop all Archiving Services. For more information refer to Shutting down the Launch Controller.
Re-run the Activation process specifying the newly migrated Repository in the COR tab. For more information refer to the Activation section in the Installation procedures for the relevant installation platform.
