migration script.
Table 11-1 Mandatory migration script parameters
In our example:
migratedb -dbtype db2 -dbname mall -dbuser dbusr01 -dbpass dbusr01pwd -from
51 -instance demo -precheck
The script will run and report any errors found and it will not make any changes to
the database. Correction of the errors (depending on the code number) will either
be mandatory or optional. The codes and their explanation can be found in the
WebSphere Commerce V5.6 migration guides.
The log file generated by the migration script is found here:
<wc56_home>\logs\migration\instancename\migrateddb51_timestamp.log
Note: For migratedb.bat script to succeed the following rules must be
applied:
1. migratedb.bat must be executed from a DB2 command window (db2cmd)
2. All the connections to the database must be terminated prior to and during
the script execution. Prior to running this script all connections can be
closed by issuing the following command:
