Migrating Objects Using OBJECTMIGRATION.xml File

This section explains how to migrate objects using OBJECTMIGRATION.xml file. In this case, you have to populate migration.properties file and OBJECTMIGRATION.xml file. These files are present in the $FIC_HOME/utility/Migration/conf folder. You do not have to make any entries in the export_input.csv and import_input.csv files, present in the same folder.

1. Navigate to the $FIC_HOME/utility/Migration/conf folder.
2. Populate the migration.properties file with appropriate values as explained in the following table.

   Note:

   The values in the properties file are updated by the installer. If you want to run this utility from another location, the values should be specified accordingly.
