GOAL:
Is Progress database portable across platforms?
FACT(s) (Environment):
Progress 8.x
Progress 9.x
OpenEdge 10.x
All Supported Operating Systems
FIX:
A Progress Database can be moved to a different Operating System via the Dump and Load procedure.
Progress does not support the use of operating system commands and/or utilities to copy a database from one operating system platform to another.
Examples where operating system commands and/or utilities would not be supported:
SUN Solaris to RedHat Linux
or
HP-UX 32 bit to HP-UX 64 bit
The only supported database migration method between unlike operating systems or platforms is a complete dump and load of the Progress database. However, copying databases between machines that run the same operating systems can successfully be done (using operating system commands and/or utilities).
