orion-OrionMigrator

This component, available in the orion palette, is used to migrate existing Orion database data without UTF-8 support into a new RdbmsDevice, which does support the UTF-8 Unicode Encoding Scheme.

You drag an OrionMigrator component from the orion palette to the OrionService in your station.

To access these properties, expand Config > Services > OrionService and double-click OrionMigrator.

In addition to the standard properties (Status, Fault Cause and Enabled), these properties support this component.

Property	Value	Description
New Db Ord	ORD selector	Defines the location in the station of the new (target) database.
Old Db Ord	ORD selector	Defines the location in the station of the existing (source) database. This is the database that is already in use.
App Ord List	list	Provides a location to add and delete database ORDs. If you migrate all Orion Apps to the same Rdbms Device, leae this property blank. This also moves the OrionAudit and OrionAppVersion tables to the new database.
Migation Type	drop-down list	Configures what to do based on the condition of the target (new) database. `New Database` is optimized for speed, but throws an exception if any record already exists. This should be your choice for a brand new database. `Insert Only` skips existing records in the target database. `Overwrite` replaces existing records in the target database. If an error occurs, the update fails and stops the migration. `Force Overwrite` replaces existing records in the target database and ignores errors. This option is required if you have an Niagara Enterprise Security station with an intrusion zone.
Records Moved	read-only	Reports the number of records migrated.
Result	read-only	Provides additional information about the migration.
