Step 2. Configure Fisheye/Crucible to use SQL Server and migrate data

In order to migrate to a different database backend, you must create a backup of your SQL data, configure the database and finally import the data via a backup restoration process. This can be done from either the Crucible administration console, which streamlines the process, or via the command line tool which Crucible provides. These two methods are described below. The following resources may be of interest:

Option 1: Migrate using the UI (Fisheye/Crucible Administration)

始める前に

• Note, during the migration process (which will take several minutes, depending on the size of your database and network throughput), the Fisheye/Crucible instance will be inaccessible to users and external API clients. Users will see a maintenance screen that informs them of the process.
• If you are attempting a migration after a previous migration has failed, you must drop all tables, indexes and constraints before attempting a new migration. This is because the destination database may contain data from the previous migration attempt.
• Ensure that the database user can log in to the database from the machine that Fisheye/Crucible is running on and that all the required privileges are present.

• If your database is hosted on a SQL Server cluster, you must include the instance name in the JDBC URL wit the following syntax: 

  For Fisheye 4.7.0 or earlier:

  jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://hostname:port;databaseName=dbName;instance=instance_name;

  For Fisheye 4.7.1 and later:

  jdbc:sqlserver://hostname:port;databaseName=dbName;instance=instance_name;

To configure Fisheye/Crucible to use SQL Server and migrate data using the administration console:

1. Click  > Administration > Database.
2. Configure Fisheye/Crucible to use SQL Server, as follows:
   
   • Select appropriate SQLServer version from the Type dropdown, matching the version of database you are running.

   • Complete the appropriate fields, replacing the URL (host, port and database name), User Name and Password as required, using the same connection details as used when creating the SQL Server database in Step 1 above.
     NOTE:  The default SQL server instance listens on port 1433.  If your instance is not the default, use the port number that is associated with your particular instance.
     e.g.

     URL: jdbc:sqlserver://localhost:1433;databaseName=dbName;

3. Click Test Connection to verify that Fisheye/Crucible can log in to the database (see 'Testing the Connection' screenshot below).
4. Click Save & Migrate Data to start the migration process (see 'Migrating the Database' screenshot below). If the migration fails, Fisheye/Crucible will not switch to the new database and will report the problems encountered.

Option 2: Migrate using the command line

To configure Fisheye/Crucible to use SQL Server and migrate data using the command line:

1. Create a backup of the sql data from the Fisheye/Crucible instance. Information on how to create a backup can be found at Backing up and restoring Fisheye data \ Backing up and restoring Crucible data

2. Run the following command from the <FishEye installation directory>/bin directory: 
   For Fisheye 4.7.0 or earlier:

   $ ./fisheyectl.sh restore --sql \
           --file /path/to/backup.zip \
           --dbtype sqlserver2012 \
           --jdbcurl "jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://hostname:port;databaseName=dbName;" \
           --username crucible \
           --password password

   For Fisheye 4.7.1 and later:

   $ ./fisheyectl.sh restore --sql \
           --file /path/to/backup.zip \
           --dbtype sqlserver2012 \
           --jdbcurl "jdbc:sqlserver://hostname:port;databaseName=dbName;" \
           --username crucible \
           --password password

3. When the import is complete, Fisheye/Crucible can be started and will use SQLServer.
