The Configuration Migration Assistant (CMA) provides customers with a flexible, extensible facility for migrating their configuration data from one environment to another e.g., from a production environment to a test environment. Data is exported from the source system to a file. The file can then be checked in to a version control system for reuse, or can be immediately imported into the target system and applied.
This addendum describes how the Configuration Migration Assistant can be used with Oracle Public Sector Revenue Management.
Read and review the Configuration Migration Assistant chapter in the Oracle Utilities Application Framework Administration Guide before attempting to use this functionality.
At a high level, migrating data involves the following steps:
Configuration:
Identify or create Migration Plans that each define a maintenance object to migrate and includes sub instructions to identify related objects. The product supplies migration plans for most administrative maintenance objects that may be used. Or implementations may develop their own.
Identify or create an appropriate Migration Request, which defines the migration plans to include in a given export. Specific selection criteria may be used when configuring the migration plans to limit the data that is included in the request.
Export the data set. Use the Migration Data Set Export object to facilitate the export a specified migration request.
The resulting file written to the export directory needs to be copied to the appropriate import directory.
Import the data in the target region.
Use a Migration Data Set Import object to facilitate importing the data.
Review the changes detected by the import and compare process.
Apply approved changes.
The topics in this section describe specific information about migration plans and migration requests provided by the product.
