Configuring the source and target systems

Configure the source and target systems to migrate products from the command line.

  1. Set up users on the source and target systems. The users must have product export(zipMoveImport) and import (zipMoveExport) privileges, and SchemaImport privileges if you want to migrate schema changes. The systems use these users for authentication, and to invoke the services.
  2. Add target systems on the source system:
  3. Note: If you add target systems from the user interface, the system prompts you for the login credentials during migration.

  4. Configure the PegaDiagnosticUser security role on the source system:
    1. Create an instance of Data-Admin-System-Security as PegaDiagnosticUser on the source system. Specify the system granting the access as the source from which migration will be initiated.
    2. Add the same role and user to the tomcat-users.xml file:
      <role rolename="PegaDiagnosticUser"/>
      <user username="pega" password="pega" roles="PegaDiagnosticUser"/>

    3. Restart Tomcat for the changes to take effect. This user is used by the target system to authenticate and download the products for migration.
