Migration Utility - iBOLT V2.5 to Magic xpi 3.x (Magic xpi 4.5)

Note:

  • The Migration utility supports projects that were developed in iBOLT V2.5 SP8b through to SP10.

  • Ensure that you back up your project files before you migrate your project.

To migrate a project:

  1. Open the iBOLT 2.5 to Magic xpi Migration dialog box in one of the following ways:

    • From the Windows Start menu > (All) Programs > Magic xpi > Magic xpi Migration.

    • In the Magic xpi installation folder, click the migration.ecf file.

    The Migration dialog box contains the following fields:

Name

Description

iBOLT 2.5 Project Details

Project file name

Click and select the .mdd project file that you want to migrate from iBOLT V2.5 to Magic xpi.

Copy project directory

Check this box to copy project files pertaining to your iBOLT V2.5 project to Magic xpi. For example, any XML files that you defined for the project.

Magic xpi Project Details

Project directory

This read-only field displays the destination folder of the migrated project.

Log file name

Click and select the destination location for the migration log file. The log file gives you a summary of all the actions carried out during the migration process, and can be used to analyze any problems that might occur.

Log level

Select one of the following log levels from the drop-down list:

  • Full: The log file displays Messages, Warnings, and Errors.

  • Errors: The log file displays Errors.

  • Warnings and Errors: The log file displays Warnings and Errors.

Convert SQL statement fields to Upper/Lower case

With Magic xpi, SQL statement field names are no longer taken from the statement itself, but are retrieved from the database. To eliminate potential field name mismatches, the Migration utility’s Convert SQL statement fields to Upper/Lower case action button displays a dialog box that allows you to convert field names to either uppercase or lowercase for any of the supported database gateways (MSSQL, Oracle, ODBC, DB2/400, DB2, or Pervasive SQL).

Automatic Mapping

When this check box is selected, the migration process examines the connections for each Data Mapper step in the project. Connections that are suitable for automatic migration are migrated to Magic xpi. When the migration log file is created, it will display all the connections that you need to fix to ensure a smooth migration to Magic xpi. If you do not fix these connections, they will be deleted during the migration process. The default is checked.

Note:

To perform the migration process efficiently and effectively, you should make sure that you fix all log error messages. Then you should re-execute the Migration utility and verify that the error section in the migration log file does not include any Data Mapper steps.

Web Service Deployment Details

Deploy Web service

Check this box to deploy a Web service to the Systinet server.

Server URL

Enter the Systinet server connection details. The default is http://localhost:6060/.

User name

Enter your Systinet user name. The default is admin.

  1. Click Execute to begin the migration process.
