Note: If you are migrating from
SAS MDM 4.2, it is not necessary to complete the following steps.
The mechanism for maintaining
records for remediation has changed from a filebased method to a database
method. If you want to maintain your existing remediation items after
SAS MDM installation, any existing remediation data must be migrated
into the database. SAS MDM provides a Java program to perform this
migration. To use it, your classpath environment variable must include
all of the JAR files in the directory identified by the MDM_REMEDIATION_LIBS
macro.
The program uses a configuration
file to connect to the SAS Data Remediation database. The file, sas.dm.mdm.migrateremediation.xml,
appears in the same directory as the required JAR files.
java -Dmigrateremediation.config=your_path\sas.dm.mdm.migrateremediation.xml
com.sas.dm.mdm.dataremediation.MigrateRemediationFiles
You see the following
changes after the program completes successfully:
-
Sas_rem_items for file-based remediation
tasks contain an app_key if the record had values for both the source
system ID and the source system record ID.
-
Sas_rem_items contain updated keys
for file-based remediation tasks. These appear as record:///id
from mdm_remediation_data.
-
Mdm_remediation_data contains an
entry for each of the records that has been migrated.
After verifying that
the content has migrated successfully, you can remove the files for
the remediation records.
