Migrating system architecture diagrams (System Architecture Migration utility)
1. Before starting the migration process:
◦ Ensure that you have backed up the Model that contains the System Architecture Diagrams you want to migrate, because the migration of System Architecture Diagrams is a destructive process.
◦ Ensure that you have owner access permissions to the Model and any Packages that need updating.
◦ Ensure that no other users have the Model open in Modeler.
◦ Ensure that all System Architecture Diagrams are valid. For more information, see System architecture diagrams that can cause problems (System Architecture Migration utility).
◦ Ensure that all diagrams are closed.
2. Add the System Architecture Profile package to the Model. How?
3. Start the System Architecture Migration Utility. How?
4. On the Introduction page, click Next.
5. On the Step 1 - Select Model page, confirm that the correct model is loaded by hovering the mouse pointer over the Artisan Studio Model box.
6. If you want to select a different Model, click the Select Model button, and select the required Model.
7. Click Next.
8. On the Step 2 - Consistency Checks page, confirm that there are no consistency errors.
If there are any consistency errors, correct the errors before continuing. For more information about how a System Architecture Diagrams can fail the consistency checks, see System Architecture Migration utility - step 2 - consistency check page (System Architecture Migration utility).
9. Click Next.
10. On the Step 3 - Finished page, confirm that there are no migration errors reported.
11. Click Finish.
