Reimporting and redeploying your Jobs
Before you begin
Make sure that the MDM server is up and running.
Procedure
- From the Integration perspective, import your local and remote Jobs as described in Upgrading the Talend projects in Talend Studio.
- Deploy the Jobs to the new MDM server one by one. For more information, see Job Designs.
Results
You can also copy and paste the Job scripts from their corresponding folder in the old application to the corresponding folder in the new application: <$INSTALLDIR>\jobox\deploy. However, this will not import the Job design that you may need at some point.
This copy and paste operation is recommended only between two MDM servers that have
the same major version, that is, the first number of the unique identifier of the
version. If the major versions differ, it is very likely that the MDM components
will not work with the new MDM Server. If you are migrating between two identical
versions or two versions where only the minor version differs, however, the copy and
paste operation will be a lot faster than redeploying the Jobs.
Information noteNote: Since Talend 6.2.0, the search
operator Strict contains is no longer available in the
components tMDMInput, tMDMDelete, and
tMDMViewSearch. If the Job you are migrating to a new
6.2.0 application involves any of the components tMDMInput,
tMDMDelete, and tMDMViewSearch using
the operator Strict contains, the search operator
Contains will be used instead automatically.
