Validating a migration file

This task is optional. The import process validates migration files automatically, but you can also run a validation separately from an import.

Important: If a background import, export, or validate configuration process is currently running on the system, you must wait until processing is complete before submitting another configuration job.
If you are importing an XML format file, you must use the following file naming convention: 
<loader-file-prefix>-op-config.xml

Procedure

  1. Log on to the target OpenPages® application as a user with the Import Configuration permission.
  2. Click Open Administration menu Administration menu > System Migration > Import Configuration.
  3. Select the migration file.
    • If the migration file is on your local system, click Local drive, and then click Add file.
    • If the migration file is in the repository, click Server repository, and then click the file that you want to validate.
  4. Click Validate.

Results

If The requested operation could not be completed is displayed, check the migration file. The file must be either a migration JAR file or an ObjectManager XML file.

If Completed With Errors is displayed, review the status messages on the History tab for information about the errors. You must fix validation errors before you import the migration file.
