3.15 IIpamAsyncSchemaConversion Server Details

This port type enables the schema conversion of the IPAM data store. When the management server determines the need for schema conversion, no other management activity can be performed till the schema conversion is completed. The schema conversion activity can be a time consuming activity. By taking the callback approach, it is possible to perform and complete the activity without running into operation timeouts that are managed by the lower layers. The following diagram shows the interaction between the management client and the management server to enable the provisioning scenario.
