This page describes how to manage multiple conversion workspaces in your projects.
From the list of conversion workspaces, you can:
Select a specific conversion workspace to access the conversion editor,
view and modify workspace details, apply generated schema and code to your
destination database, and create a migration job.
Use themore_vertMoremenu to delete a workspace.
View conversion workspace details
To view conversion workspace details, use theConversion workspacespage in the Google Cloud console or Google Cloud CLI.
Console
In the Google Cloud console, go toConversion workspaces.
Information that you can modify for a conversion workspace includes the display
name, source connection profile, add or remove custom conversion configuration files.
Go to theConversion workspacespage in the Google Cloud console:
Click the display name of the conversion workspace that you want to modify.
The conversion workspace editor opens.
SelectEdit configuration>View details.
TheConversion workspace detailspanel opens.
To modify the workspace display name:
In theConversion workspace namerow, click theeditediticon.
In theConversion workspace namefield, enter the new display name for the conversion workspace.
ClickSave.
To modify the source connection profile:
In theSource connection profilerow, click the link to the connection
profile associated with the workspace.
On the connection profile page, adjust any details as required.
For more information, seeManage connection profiles.
A new version of the conversion workspace is created and the updated version ID also appears on the overview page. This version can be used with a migration job.
You can also modify what custom conversion mapping files are used in your
workspace. For more information, seeUse custom conversion mappings.
Delete a conversion workspace
You can delete a conversion workspace only if it's not used by active migration jobs.
To delete a conversion workspace that's linked to active migration jobs, first, delete all active migration jobs that are linked to the conversion workspace. Then, delete the conversion workspace.
In the Google Cloud console, go toConversion workspaces.
Next to the conversion workspace you want to delete,
clickmore_vertMore>Delete.
In the dialog confirmation box, clickDelete.
Review all conversion workspaces
You can review all conversion workspaces from thepage.
The list displays a default set of high-level information for each conversion
workspace, including:
The conversion workspacedisplay nameandID.
Theversion IDof the most-recent version of the conversion workspace that's saved. By having multiple versions of a conversion workspace, you can compare objects in each workspace and identify differences between the workspaces. Versioning can also be used for tracking purposes.
Theconversion statethat represents whether this conversion
workspace was used to pull objects from the source and convert them.
Activityindicates if the conversion workspace is in use by one or more
active migration jobs, where an active migration job is any migration job
that's not inCOMPLETEDstatus. The number of jobs next to the status
indicates the total number of jobs (both active and inactive) referencing the
conversion workspace.
Thesourceanddestinationdatabase engines (database types) for which the conversion workspace is configured.
