merging of database contents on various servers

Hi Sunil,

 

if you want to use a report script, you can use the "Merge" report API returned by the following call



Context.getComponent("Merge")



Both databases have to be on the same server.





if you want to use a macro script, you can use the macro Merge API, this is especially helpful in ARIS 7.x to merge data from different servers. You first log into the 2 databases using

var database = Explorer.login(p_serverName, p_dbName, p_userName, p_userPassword, p_dbLang, p_filterId)

afterwards you use

var options = Merge.createMergeOptions()

var mergeMacroResult = Merge.startMerge( sourceElementsFromDb1[], targetDatabase, options)



ARIS 9 does not allow access to other servers than the current.

BR,

Hi Torsten,

 

Thanks for the reply.

As you mentioned this is not allowed in ARIS 9 is there any other feature or workaround which can help me in doing Merge of all models from one db to other on two different servers.

Hi Torsten,

var gLang = Context.getSelectedLanguage();

  var entireMethodFilter = <entiremethod guid>;   var srcDb = Explorer.login("servername","KT Session - Test","system","manager",gLang,entireMethodFilter);   var targetDb = Explorer.login("servername","T ArisToVisioABP","system","manager",gLang,entireMethodFilter);   var dbArray = [srcDb,targetDb];     reportInfo = Report.createExecInfo("reportguid", dbArray, Context.getSelectedLanguage()); result = Report.execute(reportInfo, false,true);   after executing this macro in the report when i use  var oDbs = ArisData.getSelectedDatabases(); i am getting only one database from the dbArray which is passed in the macro.   Can you please suggest if this is correct.   Thanks in advance.
