after moving legacy workflow system to Object Store, can I use lift and shift approach to migrate workflow system(which is colocated with an object store) i.e. by exporting and importing objectstore database into target CPE environment? please check and confirm.
Thanks and regards,
Venkat

You can use the technote.
However, if you have multiple regions and want to move them to be co-located with different object stores, you will need to use the other method.

Hi Ruth,
thanks so much for your prompt reply.
Can I use below technote to move a legacy workflow region to be collocated with an object store? or procedure in your attachment? please check and advise
How to migrate a legacy FileNet workflow system to a Content Platform Engine (CPE) 5.2 workflow system? (ibm.com)
after this step, can I use lift and shift approach to migrate workflow system(which is collocated with an object store) i.e. by exporting and importing objectstore database into target CPE environment?
Thanks and regards,
Venkat

Venkat
I suggest you move any legacy workflow regions to be collocated with the appropriate object store(s) prior to moving to AWS.

Hi Ruth,
thanks so much for your response.
my legacy workflow system in onPrem(source) and CPE workflow system (Target) in AWS cloud.
my goal is to migrate this legacy workflow system from on prem to CPE workflow system which is in cloud.
target CPE with 5.5.8 and source FileNet with 5.5.8.
actually source FileNet was with old version and when we upgraded to 5.5.8 then it became a legacy workflow system.
hope your confusion is clear now, please let me know.
Thanks and regards,
Venkat

I'm a little confused by your question. If you have a legacy workflow system, after the upgrade the workflows should continue to work without issue (unless you have used something that was previously deprecated and now removed).
If you are looking to move the legacy workflow system to be colocated with an object store, then you might need to do some remediation if the workflows use attachments or are launched via events in additional object stores. I've attached a document that describes how to use database tools to move a legacy workflow region to be colocated with an object store.
You don't say what your current FileNet version is, so there might be additional work required if your current version is very old. Also, you should plan on moving quickly from 5.5.8 to 5.5.12 or 5.6, because 5.5.8 will only have full support for one more year.

Hi,
we have legacy workflow system running in OnPrem and want to migrate to Content Platform Engine(CPE) 5.5.8 workflow system, once we migrate we should be able to see open and close work items.
per my research lift and shift may not work here because lift & shift only works if it is CPE to CPE workflow system migration.
much appreciated if somebody can share thoughts on this requirement.
best regards,
Venkat
