Migrating customization domain data

When migrating from IBM® WebSphere® Portal V6.0.1.1 or later, you share the Customization database domain between the earlier portal installation and the new portal installation. To enable sharing, connect to the Customization database domain in the earlier portal installation before you run the migration tasks.

Important: If the new portal installation uses the same DBMS as the earlier portal, you must use the same database driver to connect to the earlier portal's Customization database domain. For example, if you configured the new portal's release domain to use DB2 with a DB2 Type 4 driver, and the earlier portal's Customization database domain also uses DB2, you must use a DB2 Type 4 driver to connect to the earlier portal's Customization database domain. If the new portal uses Oracle for the release domain and the earlier portal's Customization database domain uses a different DBMS such as DB2, you do not need to use the same database driver to connect to the earlier portal's Customization domain.
