Migrating Data from Project Server 2002 to 2003 DB

P

ProjMan

We are upgrading from Project Server 2002 to Project Server 2003. I found articles and scripts for performing DB compatibility and performing the DB upgrade. However, I'm unclear on whether or not there are additional steps that need to be taken to "migrate" the data or if once the upgrade scripts are run if the PS2002 DB can now be used with Project Server 2003 and Project Pro 2003. Any information concerning this process or additional steps would be a big help

BTW, once the DB has been upgraded do the projects need to be imported and assignments republished in Project Server 2003? I couldn't seem to find documentation identifying a clear answer to this question. Thanks in advance for any help.

I did not find anything outside of the instructions ( I participated in the 2002 & 2003 beta of this product, when instructions did not exist :) provided that needed to be done. Also, nothing has to be imported or republished. I did find one oddity, which does not apply to your situation, but is good to know. When I tried to move a 2003 database, it would not connect. I had to, of all things, run the conversion tool on the 2003 database before Project 2003 would recognize it.
