Migrate Storage (Data Management)

ArcGIS Pro 3.4 | | Help archive

Summary

Migrates the data from a binary, spatial, or spatial attribute column of one data type to a new column of a different data type in geodatabases in Oracle and SQL Server. The configuration keyword you specify when migrating determines the data type used for the new column.

Caution:

After migrating the data type, you must disconnect from and reconnect to the geodatabase to reload the columns. If you do not, subsequent actions run on the newly migrated datasets may fail.

Usage

  • You can use this tool to migrate existing binary, spatial, or spatial attribute columns from one storage type to another. See more about data migration from one storage type to another.

  • Add datasets you want to migrate to the Input Datasets parameter and specify the Configuration Keyword value that will get you the data type you require. If you are not sure which configuration keyword to use, contact your geodatabase administrator for that information.

  • You must own the input datasets.
