DB Migration
With the new migration process of PMF 5.x, when you have the data mart db on a different server than the Mainstreet server; are there any additional steps to perform an upgrade? (eg. The old process was to move the migration scripts to the distributed DB server.)

Thanks,
Rick

PMF 5.1.1
WebFOCUS 7.6.4

the new migration scripts run autonomically and should be on the WebFOCUS server. This is assuming you're migrating from 5.n to 5n+ (e.g., 5.0.4 to 5.1.1 or 5.1.0 to 5.1.1). This will continue with the next major release. the migrator is run via SQL through the WebFOCUS SQL pipe. Makes it a heck of a lot easier to migrate!
