Perform a Custom Migration
1. On the machine that hosts the new My webMethods Server, open a command window or shell, go to the new_Software AG_directory\MWS\bin\migrate directory, and run the command migrate.{bat|sh}.
2. The utility asks for the full path to the Software AG directory that contains the old My webMethods Server installation or the ZIP file you made earlier.
3. The utility asks whether to import migration settings. Enter N.
4. For each instance in the old My webMethods Server installation, the utility asks whether to migrate the instance, and whether to use the live database or a cloned database with the instance. If you respond that you are using a cloned database, the utility prompts for the database URL, user name, and password.
Note: | You cannot use a new database that contains no data. |
5. The utility asks whether to export your settings from this session. If you want to perform other migrations by importing the settings from this session, enter Y. If not, enter N.
6. The utility asks whether to begin migration. If you enter Y, the utility migrates the instances you specified. If migration completes successfully, the utility also does the following:
Deletes old configuration files that are not used by the new
My webMethods Server, and deletes old properties that are not used by the new
My webMethods Server from the new configuration files.
If the old
My webMethods Server used the embedded database, copies the database tables from the old
My webMethods Server to the new
My webMethods Server and converts the tables to the new format.
Synchronizes the
My webMethods Server installation directory with the database.
