OK, good to know it should work except for the point-in-time stuff.

 

Any idea why the forests I was trying to restore would have been greyed out in 
the restore-from-backup panel? Would that reflect an issue with there being 
point-in-time data in the ML4 data being restored or would it be because of 
something else?

 

I checked the usual suspects, such as the forest names not matching or not 
having permissions on the files and those all seemed to be correct, but of 
course there’s still a strong chance it’s my user error. I haven’t had much 
time to work on this so when it didn’t work immediately I set it aside to 
pursue other avenues (and in particular, was able to make Flexrep push from ML4 
to ML 9 work at appropriate speed, so that’s good).

 

Thanks,

 

E.

Hi Eliot, 

 

You can do restore of the content in ML 9 from ML 4 , but Point-in-time data 
will not work. In ML 4 the timestamp was defined based on the transaction but 
in later versions  ( from 6 i guess )  it was long. So Point-in-time data will 
not work.

 

Regards,

Rajesh

I did not consider using the API. I will try that.



Thanks,

On ML 9, can you try using the API xdmp:database-restore instead of the UI?



Alternatively, since you can restore into an ML 8 server, you can do another 
backup from the ML 8 server and then restore that into an ML 9 server.
