Traffic Ops - Migrating from 1.x to 2.x
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

In Traffic Ops 2.x MySQL was removed and Postgres was replaced as the database of choice for the unforeseen future.  A Docker-based migration tool was developed to
help with that conversion using an open source Postgres tool called `pgloader <http://pgloader.io/>`_.  The following instructions will help configuring the Migration tool

System Requirements
-------------------
The user must have the following for a successful minimal install:

* CentOS 7.2+
* Docker installed (this migration was tested against version **docker-engine-selinux-17.05.0.ce-1.el7.centos.noarch.rpm**)
* Postgres has been installed according to :ref:`rl-to-install`

Setup the traffic_ops_db directory
----------------------------------

   Modify /opt dir permission to make it writable and owned by postgres:postgres

   ::

   $ sudo chmod 755 /opt 
   
   Download the Traffic Control tarball for 2.0.0

   :: 

     $ cd /opt
     $ wget https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/release/incubator/trafficcontrol/<tarball_version>

   Extract the **traffic_ops_db** dir to **/opt/traffic_ops_db**

   :: 

   $ tar -zxvf trafficcontrol-incubating-<version>.tar.gz --strip=1 trafficcontrol-incubating-<version>/traffic_ops_db
   $ sudo chown -R postgres:postgres /opt/traffic_ops_db

.. highlight:: none

Migration Preparation
---------------------
Be sure there is connectivity between your MySQL server's IP address/port and your Postgres server's IP address/port.

Navigating the Database Migration
---------------------------------
Begin the database migration after settings up the **/opt/traffic_ops_db** directory

   Switch to the postgres user so permissions stay intact.
   :: 

   $ su - postgres
   $ cd /opt/traffic_ops_db/

1. Configure the **/opt/traffic_ops_db/pg-migration/mysql-to-postgres.env** migration for your source MySQL and target Postgres settings


2. Run the migration, watch the console output for any errors (it may take some time)
   :: 

   $ ./migrate.sh


  Your MySQL data should now be ported into your new instance of Postgres!
