Migrating data
If you are using TrueSight Capacity Optimization, use the instructions in this section to migrate your data from TrueSight Capacity Optimization to BMC Helix Capacity Optimization.
BMC provides an out-of-the-box migration toolkit that enables you to migrate your data from TrueSight Capacity Optimization. There are two variants of this toolkit, each for Oracle and PostgreSQL databases. TrueSight Capacity Optimization supports Oracle and PostgreSQL databases, while BMC Helix Capacity Optimization supports PostgreSQL database only. Based on the database you are using in your TrueSight Capacity Optimization environment, you can choose the appropriate variant of the migration toolkit.
This toolkit migrates all TrueSight Capacity Optimization data including historical data, time series data, and Workspace data, such as reports, analysis, models.

The BMC team provides a set of questions that will help you identify a migration path that's right for you. Based on your response, the BMC team will assess and validate your TrueSight Capacity Optimization environment and identify the deliverables that will be migrated.
Following is a quick summary of the main questions that will help you with the migration process:
- What database do you use?
- What version of TrueSight Capacity Optimization do you currently use (for example, 11.3.01, 10.7)?
