Execute Connector Migration Tool Bamboo Task

The Connector Migration Tool is a utility provided as part of the Information Server product, and can be used to identify and optionally upgrade deprecated stages in DataStage jobs.

MettleCI provides an intelligent wrapper around the Connector Migration Tool to identify and upgrade the relevant jobs, also reporting issues that cannot be resolved by the Connector Migration Tool itself.

You can use the Execute Connector Migration Tool task to invoke the Connector Migration Tool and log its output to the Bamboo log.

Task Availability

This task is available after installing the MettleCI - ISX Export Plugin (dm-isxexport-plugin.jar)

Configuration Steps

  1. Navigate to the Tasks configuration tab for the job (this will be the default job if creating a new plan).
  2. Click the name of an existing Export DataStage Asset task, or click Add Task and then search 'DataStage' to easily locate the Export DataStage Asset task type, in order to create a new task.
  3. Complete the following settings:
