5.10 Migration Diagnostics
Introduction
When a fault occurs, clear the fault in a copy of the migrated project. Then restart the migration.
Errors During Migration
An error during the migration of a component does not interrupt the migration. The Project
Migrator writes an error message in a diagnostics file and processes the next components.
Check the list of migrated components after migration. Double-click the list entries that contain
errors or warnings to view the error in a ".txt" file.
Cancelation of Migration
You may restart an aborted migration after having eliminated all errors. Use a backup copy
instead of the project containing the migration errors.
Migration after elimination of errors
You can migrate the individual components after having eliminated the respective errors. The
computer name and the name of the local computer must match.
Select "Tools > Convert project data" in WinCC Explorer. Select the components that you want
to migrate.
Diagnostics file
The Project Migrator saves the "MigratorLog.txt" diagnostics file to the directory of the migrated
project. You can view this file in any text editor.
The file contains the following general information:
● Project name
● Project type
● Type of migrated data
● Start and end of migration
If an error occurs during migration, the Project Migrator writes an error message in the file.
