Let me clarify this conversation.

Flotsam groups is missing the implementation of notice attachments. If your grid has been running that software, then you don't have attachment information on the DB. As a result, there is nothing to port to the Groups V2 tables.

Kevin is referring to mantis 6699 (http://opensimulator.org/mantis/view.php?id=6699) which provides a patch to fix flotsam groups notice attachments. When this patch is applied, then Flotsam groups saves attachment info in the DB. This patch has not made it to opensim core yet. (sorry, we'll all been very busy)

Bottom line: unless you applied the patch yourself to your copy of opensim, there's nothing to worry about on the migration. Just use the migration code that's now on the Wiki.

Yes, I saw this field binarybucket and i do not know, to which field in
the core groups it belongs to. Therefor I've simpy discarded it from
convertion. The only fields I see, could only be AttachmentName,
AttachmentID, AttachmentType and AttachmentOwnerID from table
osgroupnotices. But as long as I do not know, how you fill the field
binarybucket, i do not know how (and where within that field) to seperate
the single items. If I would know this, maybe a simple shell script (with
AWK) would do this. But to be honest - it seems to get a hard job because
i see ownly HEX values in that field. Just look on a example from my old
flotsam groups (attached). So maybe, converting permissions and group
information and relation ships to the users might be the most valuable
things to convert rather then also having all attachement?

If someone has an Idea, how to seperate the field values and to convert
them back to usable values for the new fields, I'm more then willing,
finding a way to feed this back to the new tables!

In Flotsam groups, the table "osgroupnotice" has a field called
"BinaryBucket". That is what I used to store information about
attachments
to group notices.

The binary bucket contains up to four pieces of information in it. I
don't
know the detailed structure of core groups but AFAIK it uses separate
fields
to store all the data about notice attachments.
