5.1 Migrating Object Types

You can create object export and import definitions for the following object types using Object Export/Import feature.

The Migration object types supported by AFCS are:

• SLAs

  Note:

  When an SLA is migrated, the dependent pipeline is also automatically included in the migration.
• Ingest Connectors
• Extract Connectors
• GL Reconcilation Rule

  Note:

  • When a rule is defined with adjustments, import the associated GL Reconcilation Adjustments first, before importing the rule.
  • Export/Import of GL Rule implicitly includes TYPE & Entity Configurations.
• GL Reconcilation Adjustments
• PMF Pipelines

  Note:

  • PMF migration for custom connectors should be done only after the underlying connector has already been migrated.
  • Migrate Catalog Extension and Custom DQ Rules/Groups, before migrating the PMF pipelines in which they are referred.
• Segment Extensions

  Note:

  When you create an segment extension object in Export Segments page, the equivalent object definition is also created and set to Saved status in the Export Summary, automatically.
• Change Request

  Note:

  You can export only published Change Requests.
  • Custom DQ Rules/Groups

    Note:

    • During custom DQ Group Export:
      • All the custom DQ Rules mapped to a specific group will be exported implicitly.
      • All the custom DQ rules mapped to a specific group should belong to a published CR, else Export for such groups will fail.
    • During custom DQ Group Import:
      • All the custom DQ Rules mapped to a specific group will be imported implicitly.
      • Custom DQ objects will be overwritten in the target if they are already present and their basic properties are in sync with those of the source and are not in Approved/Submitted state in the target.
      • Filter import will be skipped, if a filter is already present in the target for the given entity and is mapped to any custom DQ rule.
