Migrating Rules to Rules Management application


Existing classic Rules can be imported directly from the BBPARM data set(s) where they are currently stored. These classic Rules must be in data sets that are included in the BBIPARM DD concatenation of the PAS to be imported to the Rules Management application.

When you migrate classic Rules into a registry, the BMC AMI Ops Automation PAS must be running in ADMIN or FULL mode so the registry is open for you to populate it with the imported Rules.

There are two methods that you can use to migrate existing Rule Sets into the Rules registry:

  • Option one is using Autoload, which allows you to quickly capture all of the Rules automation for a PAS and load it to a Rules registry where you can directly use the automation or, export the automation (by deploying the registry) to a centralized administration

    For more information about using Autoload, see Best practice: Use Autoload to migrate classic Rules.
     
  • Option two is a more manual process where you use a view to selectively import Rule Sets into the Rules registry.  For more information, see Option-two-manually-importing-classic-Rules

Choose the option that makes the most sense for your implementation strategy.
