The migration of the production server from RCS to database repository is done. The staging server needs to be migrated. The available migration document http://support.ptc.com/WCMS/files/143564/en/MKSDatabaseRepositoryMigrator_2009SP7.pdf was referred for the process.

Can the same document be referred for the migration of the staging server as well?

Thanks,
Sujith

Hello Sujith Dattatreya Padaki,

Since staging is a Workflows and Documents process (source code doesn't get staged), migrating staging servers from RCS to a database backend should work the same on as many staging servers as you have.  You should confirm that you even have source repositories on your staging server--some organization's admins use them for storing configurations of machines in their computing environment, but most organizations only store source code on their production server.
