6.7.1 Workflow Migration

jumbo

Hi, I am currently upgrading a TS 6.1 installation to TS 6.7.1 version.
I believe there is no migration utility available to convert the workflows.
Since 6.7.1 workflows are using tsusers.xml for user access. The old workflow uses roles/editor.uid for reviewer list selection.

Is there anyway that we can make the old workflow to adopt with these new changes with little modifications in the code.If so kindly throw some light on this to generate the reviewer list using tsusers.xml.

Thanks & Regards,
jumbo

I haven't played with this yet (thus far my customer's workflows do not do any role-based stuff) - but I believe you will need to use the iwroleadmin CLT - however looking at the documentation in the CLT manual it looks like it's missing an option to dump a list of all users associated with a particular role (for a particular branch)?

There's another [thread=16800]thread[/thread] that seems to indicate that it's the iwaccess CLT that you want, but the documentation for that doesn't seem to show what I would expect to find in order to perform this kind of operation either.

I don't have the 6.7.1 Perl modules on my laptop right now - but perhaps there was something added to one of the modules to do this?
