Problem:
How to migrate an existing region from native Enterprise Server to ES.NET?
Resolution:
Use the following steps to reuse existing resource definitions of any existing ES installation.
Note: these steps may differ slightly depending on the specific environment/setup:
- Open an Enterprise Server command prompt.
- Go to the directory where the current DFHDRDAT (Resource Definition file) resides.
- Create a command file with these contents:
@echo off cls echo Exporting Resource definitions of current Region Environment.
echo.
casrdtex /v /ue:dfhurdexxml /ip.\\ /o.\\OwnRegion.RDEFexport.xml /i /g /x /e /l /s /f /d /z /t /y /m
echo.
echo Converting resource Definition Export to ES.Net.Config format...
echo. seerdfconv -in:.\\OwnRegion.RDEFexport.xml -out:OwnRegion_RDEF.config
echo.
echo. Any key to exit.
pause >nul - (In above command file, change OwnRegion into the real region name)
- Execute the created command.
- Create a new region in ES.Net using the OwnRegion_RDEF.config as input.
The SEERDFconv parameters described, can be found in the online documentation.
