1. In WebFOCUS 8, navigate to the \ibi\WebFOCUS80\utilities directory.
2. Copy the mr directory and paste the entire directory to the \ibi\WebFOCUS7x\utilities directory.
3. Run mr7xto80export.bat on the Windows platform, or mr7xto80export.sh on UNIX or Linux platforms.

   You are prompted for the WebFOCUS version from which you are migrating.

   The script exports the current 7x basedir, such as Domains, procedures, content, users, Groups, and role information, to a WebFOCUS7x\utilities\mr\export directory.

   Any authorization information stored externally using the Realm Driver (SQL Repository or AD/LDAP), is retrieved and extracted as well.

   Note: The Managed Reporting authorization rules implemented in Technical Memo 4624, Configuring the Managed Reporting Repository Filter are not migrated.

   Logs are written to the WebFOCUS7x\utilities\mr\export directory by default and named mr_migrate_export.log.

   Note: If you are using the Realm Driver with an SQL repository, you must add your JDBC driver or drivers to the script file.

4. Copy the WebFOCUS7x\utilities\mr\export directory to the WebFOCUS80\migration_import directory, from which it is imported into the new WebFOCUS 8 repository.

   The directory structure looks like the following:

   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\groups.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\psets.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\repos.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\roles.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\rules.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\users.xml
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\root
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\root\WFC\UserInfo
   WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export\root\WFC\Repository (All content below this)

The following table describes the parameters in the export script file.

Parameter	Description
WFCDIR	Location of the WebFOCUS root to be exported. Defaults to ..\..\ since the entire 80 Managed Reporting directory is placed in the WebFOCUS7x\utilities directory.
EXPDIR	Location of the export files. This last directory does not need to exist, but the path does need to exist. The default directory name is export. If the path is not specified, it is created in the current directory.
XMLFILE	Location of roletoudr.xml, including the file name. The default file name is roletoudr.xml. If the path is not specified, it is accessed from the current directory. Do not modify this value.
PROCTICKET	Migrates Managed Reporting Deferred Tickets. The default value is NO.
LOGFILE	Location of the migrate log file, including name. The default file name is migrate.log. If the path is not specified, it is created in the current directory.
WEBXML	Location of the web.xml file, including name. Is used for migrating WebFOCUS 7.1 and WebFOCUS 7.6. For WebFOCUS 7.1, the value defaults to %WFCDIR%\webapps\webfocus71\WEB-INF\web.xml. For WebFOCUS 7.6, the value defaults to %WFCDIR%\webapps\webfocus76\WEB-INF\web.xml. This script assumes that the mr directory from WebFOCUS 8 is copied to the %WFCDIR%\utilities directory.
JDBC_DRIVER	If using the Managed Reporting Realm Driver, add JDBC_DRIVER below. If your JDBC driver consists of more than one JAR file, separate multiple JAR file paths with a semicolon (;). For example: JDBC_DRIVER=C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\mssqlserver.jar; C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msutil.jar; C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Driver for JDBC\lib\msbase.jar

1. You must previously create and initialize your WebFOCUS 8 database repository with default values contained within the initial load, using WFReposUtil and the original XML.
2. Navigate to \ibi\WebFOCUS80\utilities\mr and run mr_migrate_import_check.bat on the Windows platform, or mr_migrate_import_check.sh on UNIX or Linux platforms, to verify the import package.

   The logging level options are displayed, as shown in the following image.

   

3. Press Enter to select the default value, 1) info.
4. Run mr_migrate_import.bat on the Windows platform, or import.sh on UNIX or Linux platforms, to load your repository with migrated data.

   The logging level options are displayed.

5. Press Enter to select the default value, 1) info.

Note: Logs are written to the WebFOCUS80\migration_import\export directory. The log file name is import_migration.log.

The following table describes the parameters in the import script file.

Parameter	Description
USERNAME	UOA username. The default value is admin.
PASSWORD	UOA password. If you are using a trusted authentication method, this password will be blank. The default value is admin.

IBFSIMPORTPATH	UOA location in which to import a migrated environment. This value should always be set to "IBFS:\WFC" for migration. The default value is IBFS:\WFC.
WITHRULES	The import should create rules. This value should always be set to 1 to import rules for a migration. The default value is 1.
