Using the AppScan Source database migration utility

The AppScan Source migration utility helps you transfer content from the AppScan Source database to AppScan Enterprise.

AppScan Source deprecated the use of a database (SolidDB or Oracle) in version 10.0.2. Data previously stored in the database is now managed in AppScan Enterprise.

This migration utility is available for both Windows and Linux installations. You can also migrate data manually.

The utility migrates data in two major steps:
  • Exporting data from the system on which the AppScan Source "server" and database is installed.
    • Published assessments can be exported selectively based on start and end date, thus limiting content migrated to AppScan Enterprise.
    • Other content is exported in their entirety:
      • Scan configurations
      • Filters
      • User-created (custom) VDB rules
      • PBSA rules.
    • User information is exported for reference only; it is not considered for import.
    • Audit logs are not exported or otherwise considered for migration.
  • Importing onto any system with access to the exported content:
    • The import system must have access to the exported data, wherever it may reside.
    • The import system must have access to an instance of AppScan Enterprise server configured with the AppScan Database Service.
