The Adaptive Servers listed in the Connected Servers field are the servers you chose in the previous screen. You will be migrating from the source Adaptive Server to the target Adaptive Server.
You must first create paths between the databases in the source and target Adaptive Servers. To do this first select the source database in the dropdown - the name of the source and target database must and will be the same.
The Copy Thread field tells sybmigrate how many copy threads to use during the data migration process. Individual copy threads are used to migrate database data. The default is 5. There is no limit on the number of threads that you can use, so depending on the amount of data to be migrated and the server resources available (i.e. multiple CPUs or spare CPU cycles), you can increase the number of threads in order to maximize performance.
The Create Index Thread field tells the migration utility how many create index threads to use when migrating data. Create index threads are used to recreate indexes on the target Adaptive Server. The default is one. There are no limits on how many create index threads you can use, so again, you can increase this number to maximize performance.
You need to select the number of copy threads and create index threads for each database path that you create. If you have large and small databases within the same server, you can increase or decrease the number of threads accordingly.
Once you have selected a source and target databse, and the number of copy threads and create index threads, click the Add Path button, and you will see your choices reflected in the Migrate Paths field above. You can select multiple migration paths at this stage - if desired. If you require additional paths at a later point, you can add new paths by running the migration utility through the setup mode again.
