Moving the VERSION Project

Post by Starg »

Hiya,
Is there any special steps that need to be taken to move the VERSION control project. I've tried a straight export/import but the new VERSION project seems to be missing some sort of control file as the jobs do not appear in the Version Control App.

Thanks

Does anybody know?

Version Control uses a several additional files for its repository which are not exported via the DataStage export utility in Manager. They include:

APM.VERSION.XREF - Component iteration (version) records.
APM.VERSION - Release-level transactionactivity history.
APM.BATCH - Transactionactivity batches.

The data from these files will need to be viewed by your new "Version" repository project. You can do this by either copying the files (type 30 - dynamic hashed files) into your project or creating a pointer to these files. I would recommend copying the data into your new project.

Hope this helps.

Regards,

Kevin
