Migration sandbox

The database schema was completely renewed in ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager version 4.0 compared to version 3.1.4. A data migration from ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager version 3.1.4 ends with marking the database as a migration sandbox. If a database is thus marked, the server starts only if the runtimeconfig.xml parameter in the configuration file is set to automigration=true. If this parameter is set, an ARIS Risk & Compliance Manager database cannot be used productively. To be able to generate a consistent productive database after migration, the following steps must be performed manually.
