Migration

Configuring Migration

Converts EBCDIC into ASCII format for the created datasets. These migrated assets can be stored either in a database or as files.

Before initiating migration, redefine conditions for specific fields if necessary. For more information about field condition redefinition, see Condition Redefinition.

Clicking on the [Migration] button of [Migration] tab in the Dataset Details page opens an input window as follows:

The following describes each input field.

Item	Description
Source File Path	Specify the directory where the datasets to migrate are located. The default directory is the location of the file specified during the initial setup, and it can be modified. For more information about modifying setting values, see Settings.
Delimiter	Specify a delimiter character for source files. The default value is 'null', and you can enter a new character by selecting the [Write] checkbox on the right. Use this option when the asset files to migrate contain a record delimiter.
Storage Type	Specify the location to store the migrated datasets. DB: Store migrated assets in the database. File: Store migrated assets as files. DB + File: Store migrated assets in both the database and files.
Skip Error	Select the option for skipping errors during migration. Skip Record: Migration continues despite an error. Stop Migration: Migration stops upon encountering an error.
