Overview of the migration process

The migration procedure consists of configuring the source and target Adaptive Servers, setting up the migration paths, migrating objects, and validating the migrated objects.

The setup session establishes the migration paths from the source database to the target database. The setup creates the repository database and the work databases, and registers the option to migrate the server data. The setup session can only be executed by an “sa” login.

The migrate session is used to migrate objects and data from the source database to the target database.

The validate session validates the migrated objects. Validation ensures the integrity of data and objects that have been successfully migrated from the source database to the target database.
