Migrate customized values from key configuration files
so that they are available within your new InfoSphere® MDM installation.
About this task
Several components of IBM® InfoSphere MDM Standard Edition
use configuration files to control certain behaviors. The installer
for the new version of InfoSphere MDM
does not automatically migrate any custom configuration values from
your previous installation to your new installation. The following
steps describe migrating customized configuration values for the Entity
Manager, Task Manager, Event Manager, Tag Manager, and for Search
Synchronization.
Procedure
- Within your InfoSphere MDM installation , navigate to the WAS_PROFILE_HOME/conf directory.
- Open the com.ibm.mdm.mds.entity.manager.cfg file.
- Migrate any custom configuration values to the com.ibm.mdm.mds.entity.manager.cfg configuration
file within your new InfoSphere MDM
installation: WAS_PROFILE_HOME/conf/com.ibm.mdm.mds.entity.manager.cfg.
- Repeat the migration steps for the following configuration
files:
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.event.manager.cfg
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.task.manager.cfg
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.tag.manager.cfg
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.search.synchronization.cfg
Note: You do not need to migrate the following files.
They were updated automatically when you ran
madconfig update_instance_datasource or
they contain only path information that the installation mechanism
for version
11.6 has
already populated correctly:
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.jdbc.cfg
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.jni.cfg odbc.ini
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.job.manager.cfg
- com.ibm.mdm.mds.search.manager.cfg
