In general, migration of databases, schemas and data is not
required when moving from Tamino 8.x or 9.x to
Tamino 10.3. It is only necessary to set the version
of any existing version 8.x or 9.x databases to version 10.3 by using the
SET VERSION
command on the database in the
Tamino Manager.

The following definitions are used throughout this document:
- Migration
Migration means the transfer of a Tamino system from an older to a newer version, or from one machine to another. The target system may have the same architecture and operating system or different architecture and operating system. Migration includes both upgrading and also all other activities to accommodate changes in the structure and organization of Tamino schemas, data and applications so that the newer version of Tamino can be used as efficiently as possible.
- Upgrade
Upgrade means the process of transferring a Tamino database from an older to a newer version. This includes all activities necessary for making the database operational under the new version, but not optimization. Upgrading is done using the
SET VERSION
command (see the section Upgrading and Downgrading UsingSET VERSION
).- Downgrade
Downgrade means the process of transferring a Tamino database from a newer to an older version. This could be used if, for example, you install the new Tamino version on a test basis but wish to return to the older version for production purposes. See the section Upgrading and Downgrading Using
SET VERSION
for more information.
Tamino 10.3 requires its own license file which is delivered with the product. Tamino 10.3 does not work with a license file from any of the previous Tamino version.
The following steps are necessary in order to migrate Tamino databases from Linux 32-bit Linux to 64-bit:
Make backups of applicable databases in the 32-bit environment
Install a 64-bit Tamino version on a 64-bit Linux machine
Transfer the backup files (<PRODUCT_DIR>/db/*.1B0) to the 64-bit Linux machine
Restore databases via Create Database From
Backup
.
