Procedure after conversion (PPM 10.4)

After a successful conversion, you proceed as follows:

Procedure

  1. Stop the PPM infrastructure by clicking Stop ARIS PPM Core 10.4 in the Windows program group ARIS > Stop Servers.
  2. Restart the PPM infrastructure by clicking Start ARIS PPM Core 10.4 in the Windows program group ARIS > Start Servers.
  3. Start the PPM 10.4 server and the analysis server in PPM Customizing Toolkit 10.4.

    If the PPM 10.4 server is unable to establish a connection to central user administration, update the central user administration connection data. To do so go to the directory <PPM_CURRENT_CLIENT_RUN>/bin and execute the following command in the command line.

    runppmumcadmin -user system –password <password> –client <client> -resetinternalsessions

  4. Export the configuration.
    1. Go to the directory <PPM_CURRENT_CLIENT_RUN>/bin.
    2. Execute runppmconfig with the following command:

      runppmconfig -client <client> -user system -password <password> -mode export –system <PPM_CURRENT_DATA>/custom/<client>/xml

    3. Execute runppmconfig with the following command:

      runppmconfig -client <client> -user system -password <password> -mode export –locales <PPM_CURRENT_DATA>/custom/<client>/xml/<client>_locales.xml

      Configurations that you did not export in this manner (for example, report automations) can be exported individually by means of the batch file runppmconfig.

  5. If the internal computer name of the sub-server is unknown, the URL of the sub-server RMI registry can be exported from the log file rmi_system.out.log for the RMI registry in the directory <Sub-Server_Installation>\ppm\server\bin\work\work_ppm_core\defaultLog\ as follows:

    The RMI registry has been started on "<local host name>:17500".

    Information on how to change the registry address can be found in the corresponding chapter Changing the registry addresses in the PPM Operation Guide.

  6. For clients that contain Data Analytics analysis realms and have been migrated from PPM version before 9.7, you must re-import the data in the tables for these analysis realms to PPM. As long as you have not reimported the data, an error message will be output for queries in Data analytics or Cross analytics.
    1. If you have not done so already, start the client's server and analysis server.
    2. Start CTK by clicking PPM Customizing Toolkit 10.4 in the Windows program group ARIS > PPM 10.4 > Administration.
    3. Select a client.
    4. Click Configure Data analytics.
    5. Open all analysis realms one by one, and in the respective analysis realm overview on the top right, click Import data.

      If you are using CSV data sources, check if the file reference is still valid.

The data is now saved persistently in the new database introduced in PPM 10.4.

You can use the migrated clients in PPM now. When migrating from a previous PPM version to 10.4 the analysis server does not need to be reinitialized. The recovery files are copied during migration.

If you had Data analytics analysis realms in the version to be migrated and want to calculate the standard deviation for measures in these analysis realms, you need to manually adapt the configuration accordingly. The corresponding procedure is described in chapter Enable standard deviation for Data analytics.
