System Database Conversion
It is highly recommended that you back up your system database before the conversion.
Setup Wizard / Engine Cockpit
Step 1
Start the Axon Ivy Engine and open the Setup Wizard. Switch to the System Database page. A message will be shown that the current database is outdated.
Step 2
To automatically convert your old system database, click the Migrate Database button. A dialog appears asking for confirmation.
Confirm the dialog and the system database will be converted automatically. The next attempt to connect to the now converted database will succeed.
Auto Convert Property
Instead of using the Engine Configuration Tool to convert the system database
you can also set the autoConvert
property in the ivy.yaml to true
in the configuration directory. Then the system database will be converted
automatically on the next engine start.
Notes
Depending on the conversion steps and your database system it may be necessary to cut all connections to the system database to avoid problems. If you have problems with the conversion, please disconnect all other database management tools, clients or other tools that has a connection to the system database and try again.
