Summary: E1: DSTR: How to copy Processing Options Values from Production to Prototype Details: SOLUTION ID: 200985370: E1: DSTR: How to copy Processing Options Values from Production to Prototype
ISSUE:
How can I copy processing option values for batch and interactive applications from my production environment to another environment such as prototype?
SOLUTION:
Currently, EnterpriseOne does not have a built in mechanism specifically for copying all Processing Option Values from one environment to another. However, there are many available options for accomplishing this copy. To copy processing option values from Production to Prototype, you can any one of the following methods:
Method 1
If the copy is only for a few objects, the recommendation is to use Object Management Workbench (OMW) to copy the objects. Refer to solution 200961597 - Promoting processing option changes using OMW.
Method 2
To copy only UBE batch version processing option values, you can use R9830512. This UBE must be run locally and in order to prevent an error message asking you to use OMW to do this you will need to change the jde.ini file to include the following:
[OMW]
R9830512_UBE_VERSION_COPY=W.
Please check the defined processing option values and data selection before running a version of R9830512.
Method 3
If you need to convert all interactive and UBE batch version processing option values, use the R98403 UBE version XJDE0504 to copy the records in the F983051 table of the PD environment to the F983051 table of the PY environment. You can copy an existing R98403 version e.g. XJDE0504 to a custom version such as COPYPOVAL.
Then set the Processing Option values for this version of R98403 as follows:
Option 1 = Blank
Option 2 = Version - PY9
Option 3 = 2
Option 4 = Version - PD9
Option 5 = Blank.
Option 6 = 0 (for Proof Mode) or 1 (for Final Mode)
Option 7 = A (This will recreate the F983051 table in the Target Datasource. This means that all the versions found in PY9 and not in PD9 will be lost)
In the Data selection, set Object Name = F983051.
As a precautionary measure, it is strongly recommended that you perform a database backup before you run the R98403 . You can only use this method if both PY and PD contain the same versions and also the UBE version specifications are promoted in OMW to both environments. This is because R98403 only copies data of processing option values but does not copy the UBE version specifications.
Method 4
If you need to make an exact copy of PD to the PY environment for all objects e.g UBE, Interactive Applications, Processing Options, Data Structures, etc, refer to the solution 200783172 (AS400 specific) or solution 200783080 (non AS400).
These documents refers to how to create a mirror from PY to PD but the steps can be used in reverse to refresh the PY environments from PD. These documents mention how to copy the whole environment not only processing options. Prior to creating a mirror of an environment, it is strongly recommended to backup all system databases (Deployment Server, Enterprise Server database).
