Import the InForm study DMP file(s)
To import the InForm study DMP file(s):
- Edit the ImportParametersTemplate.txt file in the ExportFiles folder and update the following parameters at the top:
- trial_user_pass—The new trial schema password.
- pfdbapid—The PFDbAdmin password.
- dump_file_dir_path—The location on new database server where the dump files are copied to.
- deployment_backup_folder—The folder on database server where backups are created during deployment.
- Run the ImportMigrationFiles.cmd (located in the <InstallationDirectory>\InForm\Bin\DBOra folder on the InForm application server), using the following syntax.
ImportMigrationFiles.cmd <TNS_Service_Name>/accountparms:<path to edited ImportParametersTemplate.txt>
The ImportMigrationFiles command imports the DMP file(s), upgrades study resources, recreates the review schema, and configures the InForm study.
Any custom events in the study are exported to a CSML file and must be imported in Central Designer before the deployment package for the migrated study is installed. For more information, see Import the custom events created in previous releases into the study in Central Designer.
Note: Previously exported customer-defined databases or randomization databases that are not part of the study database must be imported using standard database commands. For more information, see the Oracle Database documentation.
