Planning the New Application and Database
Environment
Other planning details depend on the type of migration path that you choose:
Upgrading to a newer version of NonStop SQL/MX Release 2.x
Migrating from SQL/MX Release 1.8 to SQL/MX Release 2.x (metadata and
applications)
MIgrating from NonStop SQL/MP to NonStop SQL/MX (applications or tables)
If the migration can be broken into phases, each phase should have its own complete
plan:
New application development and
testing tools
New application build procedures
Software configuration changes
Changes to existing applications
Applications that require language-
compilation
Applications that require SQL-
compilation
New applications
SQL/MX database
Volumes and locations of all partitions
How is the SQL database expected to
grow in the near future?
