Running the Archive Migration Tool

When you run the Archive Migration Tool, you can choose to copy the Logger data immediately, or schedule a time for it. The first time that you run this tool, you will be prompted to configure the Amazon S3 bucket.

  1. Log in to the Logger server as the Logger installation user. We do not recommending using a root user.

  2. Go to the <LOGGER_INSTALLATION_PATH>/updates/logger-archive-catalog-tool directory

    where:

    <LOGGER_INSTALLATION_PATH> represents the path where your Logger is installed. This parameter is required.

  3. To execute the loggerToReconArchiveCatalog.sh script, run the following command:

    ./loggerToReconArchiveCatalog.sh -i <LOGGER_INSTALLATION_PATH>

    If any errors occur during this process, the Archive Migration Tool will print messages on the screen to make you aware of them.

    To review the execution log, look for the logger_to_recon_archive_catalog_${loggerIPNoDots}.log file, saved under the same path where the script is.

    During execution, the loggerToReconArchiveCatalog.sh script will print error messages only. To view more on-screen detail, activate the verbose mode by adding the -v parameter when executing the script.
