Project Data Transfer

project_data_tranfer

The Corporate edition of Enterprise Architect supports SQL Server, MySQLand Oracle 9i, 10g and 11g data repositories. At some point, it might become necessary to move a complete model from one repository to another, row by row, table by table.

The project data transfer function enables you to perform the following tasks:

  • Upload an existing .EAP file to SQL Server or MySQL
  • Download a repository in MySQL or SQL Server to a .EAP file
  • Move a repository from SQL Server to MySQL or from one server to another
  • Move all records from a .EAP file with replication to a model with none (Remove Replication)
  • Copy all records from a .EAP file to another (recommended after serious network crash or repeated database corruption)
  • Copy all records from a JET 3.5 to JET 4 (Access 2000 or XP) - or back the other way.

See the Perform a Project Data Transfer topic for instructions.

Note:

You cannot move a model from a source .EAP file of a version earlier than 3.5.0.

Warning:

All records in the target repository are overwritten.
