Creating a Configuration Template

To use a conversion configuration solution to migrate multiple databases, you can create and set a conversion configuration template before creating a migration project. The template can be easily reused in subsequent migration projects.

Selecting a Template

Generally, you need to set Template Type to Select to create a conversion template.

  1. Log in to the UGO console.
  2. In the navigation pane, choose Conversion Configuration.
  3. Click Create Configuration Template. Template Type is set to Select by default on the displayed page.

    • Each user can create up to 10 templates. If more than 10 templates have been created in an earlier version, all templates can be properly displayed after the upgrade.
    • Only user admin can edit and delete templates created by other users.
