Migration Tool Commands

You can run various Migration Tool tasks through DOS or UNIX. To perform all of the following tasks, your current directory must be the directory in which your migration_tool.bat resides. Also, to perform an actual migration directly from DOS or UNIX, you must already have a migration or export file.

For DOS:

  • To launch the Migration Tool GUI application, specify migration_tool.
  • To perform the actual migration directly from DOS, specify migration_tool -migrate <migration file><database><password><username><purpose>
  • To determine the migration tags and parameters tags you can use, specify the following: migration_tool /?
