Management Center Data Migration Configuration

Constraints

• Metadata collection tasks, metadata categories, and tags with the same name in DataArts Catalog cannot be migrated repeatedly.
• Only an exported .zip file can be imported. During the import, the system verifies the resources in the file.
• For security concerns, passwords of connections are not exported when the connections are exported. You need to enter the passwords when importing the connections.
• Only the enterprise edition supports the export of data catalogs (categories, tags, and collection tasks). The expert edition does not support this function.
• The file to be imported from an OBS bucket or local path cannot be larger than 10 MB.

1. Log in to the DataArts Studio console by following the instructions in Accessing the DataArts Studio Instance Console.
2. On the DataArts Studio console, locate a workspace and click Management Center.
3. In the navigation pane, choose Migrate Resources.

   If no result is displayed in 1 minute, the export fails. Try again. If the failure persists, contact the customer service or technical support.

7. After the export is complete, you can click Download in the row of the corresponding migration task to download the exported resource package.

Verifying the Migration

After resources are imported to the new workspace, you can check whether the following imported resources are the same as those in the old workspace:

• Data connections in Management Center
• Metadata collection tasks, metadata classifications, and metadata tags in DataArts Catalog
• APIs published in DataArts DataService
