RTC migration issue with Derby from 1.0.1 to 2.0
I am trying to migrate a customer derby database from 1.0.1 to 2.0.
I would like to understand what is the right procedure to do this. I have tryed to copy the RepositoryDB and the other configuration files as described in the installation guide, but this doesn't work. I have also tried to use the repotools - export command but it stacks on Exporting com.ibm.team.reports/ReportQueryDescriptor (a pmr has been opened). Any hints or help? Thanks, Mariangela |

Hi Mariangela,
you can't just copy the files. Following the upgrade notes from the download site on jazz.net what you do is. * Install RTC 2.0 * I then checked the installation worked OK * You need to check the teamserver. properties and other files that might have been changed manually and manually migrate these changes over to the new server. I don't think just copying works. * I checked again the new server worked OK * In the workspaces make sure all users check in their changes * You do a repotools -export with the 1.0.1.1 repotools * You do a repotools -import with the 2.0 repotools this also does migrating the data such as process templates etc. It worked for me except the default report I had set was not available any longer and I had to set a new default report. (Sounds similar to your case but I did not see a stacktrace) I have seen issues being posted in this forum. did you search for them? I assume the export completely fails otherwise you probably would have tried importing, right? In this case I don't see many options, other than trying to get rid of the report that causes the failure. I am trying to migrate a customer derby database from 1.0.1 to 2.0. |

Hi Mariangela, The problem is that there's an installation guide on jazz.net which does in fact say, incorrectly, that you need only copy repositoryDB from the 1.0 location to the 2.0 location. I ran into the same thing when doing my upgrade a few weeks ago. Since I knew 2.0 involved a schema change I knew that couldn't be right so I went ahead and did the export/import anyway, but it was there in black and white saying "just copy". I assume Mariangela was working off the same note. Sorry, I no longer have the URL. I believe the installation/upgrade notes are kind of fragmented with a number of competing/overlapping documents and I think there's already at least one WI requesting improvement there. But you should be aware that there's a note on jazz.net which says the wrong thing. MK |

Hi Mervyn,
good to know. I think this did not happen to me because I was following the threads here and also have some experience with betas. However I followed the upgrade info (not sure on jazz.net or in the help) and did not recognize it being misleading. But I remember too that there where complaints about inconsitency.
