Migrating Data
To migrate the data dictionary and databases:
On your MPE/V system.
1. Disable Access Server with the DISABLEAC UDC command.
2. Create the following store tape containing @.PPCSAVE.HPOFFICE and
@.PPCDICT.HPOFFICE:
:HELLO MGR.HPOFFICE
:FILE HDPDICT;DEV=TAPE
:STORE @.PPCSAVE,@.PPCDICT;*HDPDICT;SHOW
3. Create a store tape containing any IMAGE/3000 databases you wish
to migrate. Any databases not being migrated will have to be
deleted from the dictionaries or configured as remote databases if
there is a LAN connection.
On your MPE/XL system:
4. Create the accounts, groups, and users necessary for the
IMAGE/3000 databases being migrated.
5. Restore the IMAGE/3000 databases.
6. Restore the dictionaries as follows:
:HELLO MGR.HPOFFICE
:FILE HDPDICT;FILE=TAPE
:RESTORE *HDPDICT;@.PPCSAVE,@.PPCDICT;SHOW;CREATOR=MGR
7. Proceed with the steps for "Update Installation" in Chapter 3,
"Installing Access Server."
Invalid Tables
Once Access Server is installed, use the Synchronize function of the
Administrator Utility to identify any tables that are no longer valid.
Here are some ways a table can become invalid and the solutions for
restoring them.
* The table is linked to a local IMAGE/3000 database that was not
migrated during installation. There are three possible ways to
reconcile this:
a. Migrate the database to the MPE/XL system with
Store/Restore.
b. If there is an NS/3000 link between the MPE/V system on
which the table originated and the MPE/XL system, use the
Administrator Utility to redefine the database as a remote
database.
c. Delete the table definition with the Administrator Utility.
* The invalid table is a remote table linked to a remote IMAGE/3000
database that is not accessible via an NS/3000 connection. Either
delete the table definition with the Administrator Utility, or
establish a communications link.
