The Migration Tooling requires a 'Custom Target' enabled license. This is because the tooling will use the Custom Target database type for loading into the destination PostgreSQL RED metadata database. For customers on a traditional SQL Server, Oracle or Teradata targets your license may need to be temporarily upgraded to support the migration by adding a Custom Target.

Info
titleCustom Target Type

Licensed Custom Target Database Type is the label in your license given to your Custom target, this will be used for PostgreSQL targets during migration. This is just a display label for the underlying Custom target type. It could be set to anything in your own license and will be discernable in database type dropdowns by having a trailing '*'. So MySQL will appear as MySQL* in RED. For example: your license might have a label of Snowflake*, RedShift* or Synapse* but the underlying database type in RED is Custom.

Migration Source Metadata

Source Metadata: 

  • A supported RED Metadata Repository on SQL Server, Oracle or Teradata which has a RED version of 8.6 or higher
