How to Manage DB2 Object Migrations › View Object Migration Analysis Status

View Object Migration Analysis Status

After you submit a migration for analysis, the analysis produces migration control statements that you can review, edit, and submit for migration. These controls statements identify the objects for migration and any dependencies while preserving the target data.

Using the Quick Links module lets you submit a migration for analysis and review the output messages and results at a later time after the analysis has been performed.

Follow these steps:

1. Add the Quick Links module to your workspace from the Module Library.
2. Click the View Object Migration Analysis Status link.

   The Submitted Analysis Statement Status dialog appears. This dialog lists the status of all analysis requests that you have previously submitted.

   Note: You can also view the status of previously submitted analyses by clicking Analysis Status in the STATUS pane of the Investigator or at the bottom of any Object Migrator dialog.

3. (Optional) Select an analysis and browse, delete, edit, or update as needed.

   Note: We recommend that you review the messages and browse the results before submitting. When the analysis shows the migration would produce unintended results, update the migration as needed and repeat the analysis until the migration produces the desired results.

4. When the analysis produces the desired results, click Submit to submit the migration control statements for execution.

   The migration is submitted for analysis and the View Analysis Status dialog opens. This dialog provides the submitted analysis statement status.

5. Click Refresh to update the analysis status manually, or click Enable auto refresh to have the system periodically update the status. When the status changes to Completed or Error, click Next.

   The analysis produces migration control statements to perform the migration and the Migration Control Statements dialog opens. These controls statements identify the objects for migration and any dependencies while preserving the target data.

6. Review messages about the analysis and review and edit the results.

   When an analysis shows that the migration would produce unintended results, you can customize the migration and repeat the analysis until the migration produces the desired results.

7. Click Submit to submit the migration control statements for execution.

   If you edited the migration control statements, you are prompted to save the changes. Otherwise, the View Migration Status dialog opens and displays the status details about the submit migration statements.

8. Click Refresh to update the migration status manually, or click Enable auto refresh to have the system periodically update the status. When the status changes to Completed, click Next.

   The migration results appear in a dialog for review.

9. Review the results and click Finish to complete the migration.

   The selected DB2 objects are migrated.

   You have successfully evaluated a migration candidate, built an analysis profile, and migrated DB2 objects.
