Hello,

 

there is sadly no out-of-the-box solution available from PTC.

Your best chance is to contact PTC Global Services to build you your own personal migration tool. But be aware that "migrate ALL data" will be maybe not possible or very expensive.

 

Easiest solution is obviously to copy latest checkpoint into SCCM and set old versioning repository to read-only.

So far we haven't seen a solution from PTC that manages to remove/shut down other repositories by migrating everything into Integrity.

 

Regards,

Ulrich

Hi Ulrich

could you please explain more the below sentence

"Easiest solution is obviously to copy latest checkpoint into SCCM and set old versioning repository to read-only."

I am keen to know what exactly we are trying to achieve and how?

Hello,

 

from our experience: a full migration is very time & money consuming since there is not a fully developed solution available from PTC.

Common practice from PTC is to recommend to take latest checkpoint/release from different tool and do a check in into PTC Integrity. Old repository system is still around to look stuff up but should be no longer used for development.
