Running the Extraction tool

You can run the extraction tool in two modes: pre-extract and extract.

  • run_migration_tool_debug.bat (extract mode)

  • run_post_migration_debug.sh (post-migration mode)
  • run_pre_extract_debug.bat (pre-extract mode)
  • run_pre_extract_debug.sh (pre-extract mode)
When you run the file is run with debug option enabled, the SQL is printed to the log file before execution.
