Hi Listers,

we want to use runmacro and arimportcmd to migrate
our ARS data from an ARS 4.0.3 box to an ARS 5.1 box.

We want to use runmacro 5.1 (p1186) against an
ARS 4.0.3 server. Are any known issues available?
Does runmacro 5.1 work properly against an ARS4.0.3 Server?
After this we want to use arimportcmd 5.1 (p1186) to import
the exported data into an ARS 5.1 Server.
Does arimportcmd

We need to migrate a lot of entries in different forms - are there
any restrictions regarding export with runmacro and import with
arimportcmd? Maybe runmacro can't export more than
100k datarows in one transaction or arimportcmd can't import
more than 100k datarows without an interruption?

Thanks a lot for sharing your knowledge! :-)

Best regards
Ruediger

It should work properly since it should be backwards compatible.

On the other hand, you should explore the Fast Export utility in the
applications gallery, if the field type and fields IDs are the same.

I actually ran in to problems whith an API-program compiled with the 5.1-API
that retrieved entries from a 4.0.1 server.

The ARGetMultipleEntries() call crasched without returning. This was only
true for some forms though...
When I changed the ARGetMultipleEntries() to multiple calls to ARGetEntry()
it worked fine.

It is possible that this will affect the runmacro51-command.
Maybe the good old arcopy-command could work if you have a unix-server (or
client).

p.s. Sorry for my latest Swedish response, it was not attended for the whole
community... d.s.

Hello Folks,

I used arimportcmd with an ar mapping file to import data.
I set the "Duplicate Request ID Preference" to 3
"Replace Old Record with New Record".

I imported 3 requests with this option to an empty form.
I've imported the request a second time and suddenly
I saw three additional requests even though I used
ID preference 3 in the arm file.

Possibly this is a bug?
Sun solaris 2.8, ARS 5.1 1186, arimportcmd patch 1186
on Oralce 8.1.7.

Import data with arimportcmd without a
mapping file worked correctly.

Have fun!

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.

Best Regards
Ruediger
