For Pega Platform version 8.3 and earlier: Migrating rules and objects to the new rules schema
Use the migrate script to migrate the rules tables and other required database objects from the existing rules schema to the new rules schema. To minimize the time required, run the migration scripts from the same data center as the database server.
- Use a text editor to edit the
migrateSystem.propertiesfile in the scripts directory of your distribution image:Pega-image\scripts\migrateSystem.properties - Configure the source properties.
# Connection Information pega.source.jdbc.driver.jar=full path/DRIVER.jar pega.source.jdbc.driver.class=database driver class pega.source.database.type=database vendor type pega.source.jdbc.url=URL of database pega.source.jdbc.username=Deployment user name pega.source.jdbc.password=password pega.source.rules.schema=existing rules schema name pega.source.data.schema=existing data schema name - Configure the target properties. Leave the target data schema name blank:
pega.target.jdbc.driver.jar=full path/DRIVER.JAR pega.target.jdbc.driver.class=database driver class pega.target.database.type=database vendor type pega.target.jdbc.url=database URL pega.target.jdbc.username=Deployment user name pega.target.jdbc.password=password pega.target.rules.schema=new rules schemaNote: If pega.target.data.schemais blank, the rules schema is used by default. - Configure the bulkmover directory:
pega.bulkmover.directory=full path to output directory - Configure a temporary
directory:
pega.migrate.temp.directory=full path to temporary directory - Configure the operations to be performed by the utility as shown below:
pega.move.admin.table=true pega.clone.generate.xml=true pega.clone.create.ddl=true pega.clone.apply.ddl=true pega.bulkmover.unload.db=true pega.bulkmover.load.db=true pega.rules.objects.generate=false pega.rule.objects.apply=false - Save the properties file.
- Open a command prompt, and navigate to the scripts directory.
- Type
migrate.bator./migrate.shto run the script.
Pega Platform writes command-line output to a file in the
Pega-image\scripts\logs directory.
