Do not use a database that requires migration; always migrate a database to a CCS. You
cannot administer an unmigrated database.
If a database needs migration, the database icon shows a red box with an X and a yellow
arrow. The database icon appears in several views in the Interplay Administrator, including
the Manage Database Roles view.

When you migrate a database, the system deletes all the information inside the database
that was stored from the old CCS, including users, user settings and local administration
settings.
c
If you plan to migrate an Interplay Engine or Interplay Archive Engine database, turn off
the database backup process before you perform the migration. If you do not turn off the
backup process and it coincides with the migration, your backup will write out an
inconsistent state of the database (half current and half migrated).
To migrate a database to a new CCS:
1. In the Database section of the Interplay Administrator window, click the Manage Databases
icon.
The Manage Databases view opens.
(Red box with X and yellow arrow) Database needs migration.
