Project Settings (Migration) (MySQLToSQL)

The Migration page of the Project Settings dialog box contains settings that customize how SSMA migrates data from MySQL to SQL Server.

The Migration pane is available in the Project Settings and Default Project Settings dialog boxes.

  • To specify settings for all SSMA projects, on the Tools menu, select Default Project Settings, select the project type in Migration Target Version drop down of which you want to access the settings, click General at the bottom of the left pane, and then click Migration.

  • To specify settings for the current project, on the Tools menu, select Project Settings, click General at the bottom of the left pane, and then click Migration.

Bulk Copy

Term Definition
Batch Size Specifies the batch size used during data migration.

Default Mode: 1000

Optimistic Mode: 1000

Full Mode: 1000
Check constraints Specifies whether SSMA should check constraints when it inserts data into SQL Server tables.

Default Mode: False

Optimistic Mode: False

Full Mode: False
Fire triggers Specifies whether SSMA should fire insertion triggers when it adds data to SQL Server tables.

Default Mode: False

Optimistic Mode: False

Full Mode: False
Keep identity Specifies whether SSMA preserves MySQL identity values when it adds data to SQL Server. A value of False causes identity values to be assigned by the destination.

Default Mode: True

Optimistic Mode: True

Keep nulls Specifies whether SSMA preserves null values in the source data when it adds data to SQL Server, regardless of the default values that are specified in SQL Server.

Default Mode: True

Optimistic Mode: True

Full Mode: True
Table lock Specifies whether SSMA locks tables when it adds data to tables during data migration. Obtains a bulk update lock for the duration of the bulk copy operation. If the value is False, a lock is set at the row level.

Default Mode: False

Optimistic Mode: False

Full Mode: False

Data Modification

Term Definition
Invalid Dates Migration Specifies how to migrate invalid dates with like '2007-04-23' or '2000-06-31 10:00:00' in DATE and DATETIME formats.

Default Mode: Set NULL

Negative TIME values Migration Specifies how to migrate negative values like '-30:11:00' in TIME columns.

Default Mode: Set NULL

Optimistic Mode: Set NULL

Full Mode: Set NULL
TIME values over 24 hours Migration Specifies how to migrate TIME values of more than '23:59:59' in TIME columns.

Default Mode: Set NULL

Optimistic Mode: Set NULL

Full Mode: Set NULL
Truncate binary values to fit into column If Yes, SSMA truncates binary values from MySQL that do not fit into SQL table columns and generates appropriate error message. If No, the row causes an error

Default Mode: No

Optimistic Mode: No

Full Mode: No
Truncate character values to fit into column SSMA truncates character values from MySQL that do not fit into SQL table columns and generates appropriate error message.

Default Mode: No

Optimistic Mode: No

Default Mode: Set NULL

Optimistic Mode: Set NULL

Full Mode: Set NULL

Migration Engine

Term Definition
Migration Engine Specifies database engine used during Data Migration. Client side data migration refers to SSMA client retrieving the data from the source and bulk inserting that data into SQL Server. Server side data migration refers to SSMA data migration engine (bulk copy program) running on the SQL Server box as a SQL Agent job retrieving data from the source and inserting directly into SQL Server thus avoiding an extra client-hop (better performance).

Default Mode: Client Side Data Migration Engine

Optimistic Mode: Client Side Data Migration Engine

Full Mode: Client Side Data Migration Engine

Important

When the Migration Engine option is set to Server Side Data Migration Engine, a new Project setting option Use 32-Bit Server Side Data Migration Engine is displayed. It specifies whether 32 bit or 64 bit Bulk Copy Program (BCP) utility is used to migrate data.

Misc

Term Definition
Extended Data Migration Options Shows extra data migration options for each table in separate detail tab.

Default Mode: Hide

Optimistic Mode: Hide

Full Mode: Hide
On Error Stops Data migration when an error occurs. It has three options:

Stop migration: Stops data migration operation

Proceed to next table: Stops data migration to the current table and proceeds to the next one

Proceed to next batch: Stops data migration to the current batch and proceeds to the next one

Default Mode: Proceed to the next batch

Optimistic Mode: Proceed to the next batch

Full Mode: Proceed to the next batch

Parallel Data Migration

Term Definition
Parallel Data Migration Mode Specifies the mode used to fork threads to enable parallel data migration. In Auto mode, SSMA chooses the number of threads (10 by default) forked to migrate data. In Custom mode, user can specify the number of threads forked to migrate data (minimum is 1 and maximum is 100). Currently, only client side data migration engine supports parallel data migration.

Default Mode: Auto

Optimistic Mode: Auto

Full Mode: Auto

Important

When the Parallel Data Migration Mode option is set to Custom, a new Project setting option Thread Count is displayed. It specifies number of threads used for data migration.

Default Mode: Generate an Error

Optimistic Mode: Generate an Error

Full Mode: Generate an Error
Value Validation Specifies how to handle invalid spatial values. If 'Try Make Valid' is specified, an attempt is being made to modify invalid values to make them valid.

Default Mode: Make Valid

Optimistic Mode: Do Not Change

Full Mode: Make Valid
