This document provides the recommended guidelines for upgrading to the latest version
of Oracle BPM and migrating existing AquaLogic BPM projects.
Here's an overview of the main steps needed to upgrade AquaLogic BPM 6.0 projects to
Oracle BPM 10.3:
- If necessary, migrate your 6.0 projects code to 10.3, as described in Migrating Project Code.
- Upgrade your 6.0 Enterprise environment to 10.3, as described in Migrating Enterprise Environment. The overall procedure can
summarize in the following steps:
- Stop all BPM 6.0 services and applications.
- Install Oracle BPM Enterprise 10.3.
- Configure Oracle BPM 10.3 to point to your existing 6.0 Directory database.
- Make some necessary changes to make your environment compatible with 10.3.
- Start your Process Execution Engines.
Upgrading Database structures
The schema structure of the Directory databases is
automatically migrated when you first start Oracle BPM 10.3 Process Administrator. Likewise,
the schema structures of the Engines' databases are migrated automatically when you
first start each Engine. This means that pre-existing process instances will continue
their execution on the new 10.3 environment.
