Help needed in iwmigrate command for migration of branches

Hi,
I would like to migrate more than one branch and don't want to migrate the complete store . The below command was working fine for me to migrate one branch.

$iwhome/bin/iwmigrate -m “/iwmnt/default” -o “output directory” -b “branchname”

I want to know what are the parameters I have to pass to migrate more than one branch and not the complete store

Appreciate your help

Thanks!

Thanks!

You have to issue a separate command for each branch you want to migrate - replacing "branchname" as appropriate - and you have to do it serially (you cannot have multiple migrations running at the same time)

Hi ghoti,
Thanks for your response. One last question, Is there any issue if I give the same "output directory" for both commands.

$iwhome/bin/iwmigrate -m “/iwmnt/default” -o “output directory” -b “branchname1”
$iwhome/bin/iwmigrate -m “/iwmnt/default” -o “output directory” -b “branchname2”

Thanks!

The '-o' flag is for specifying the output store directory - so it is likely that it should be the same for all instances of this command unless you are trying to migrate branches from one store to two-or-more other stores. So "no" there should not be any issue with you doing that.
