Database migration

After you initially configure OpenEdge Management, you can use the Database Migration utility at any time to migrate a scripted database to a managed database.

To migrate a database from the OpenEdge Management console:

  1. Click Resources. The Resources page appears.
  2. Click Database Migration Utility. The Database Migration Utility page appears. This page contains two sections. The first section provides an overview of the information you must provide to migrate the database, and the second allows you to provide specifics about the particular database you want to migrate.
  3. Enter the database's information into the second section (Database Information) of the page and click Submit.
  4. Note: For additional details about the information you must provide when migrating a database, see the OpenEdge Management: Installation and Configuration Guide.

The AdminServer now controls the database. Use the AdminServer or the DBMAN utility to start and stop the database. If you managed the database with scripts before its migration, do not use these scripts after the migration. If you use these scripts, OpenEdge Management will not recognize your database. OpenEdge Management can only recognize databases run by the AdminServer.
