Migrating Data

This section describes how to migrate data from previous versions of Innovation Design & Decisions.

Data installed with previous versions of the Innovation Design & Decisions may be unavailable after a software update.

If you encounter this issue, migration scripts are available in the BIOVIA Models media. These will perform the transformation required to migrate your data to a later version.


Before you begin: A R2019X update on top of a R2018X installation adapts the following script:
  • BDVModel-R421-Migrate.mql
Note: If you run this script under any other circumstances than data upgrade, it may be hazardous to your data. Consult your administrator before running this script.

This script requires the location of the MQL executable, for example:

path/server/scripts/mql     BDVModel-R421-Migrate.mql
