The conversion's source minimum requirement is version 4.5.0, as only from that version on all tables are in the exprected expected state for the conversion tool.

In case of older versions please first upgrade the source system first to the current 4.5.x version.

For archived and moved evaluations trend files cannot be created, because in most cases it is not possible physically access thoise those files. In CSC it is possible, that you get that error message recreation the trend files:

OptionBeschreibung
(1)Select here the custoCfg.ini of the source system from which it should be converted to custo diagnostics 5.
(2)

Select here to extend of the conversion (Full oder Smart-conversonconversion), see Options for the conversion

On top in can be configured whether evalauations evaluations should be deleted in source system after the successful conversion of every single CST file.

(warning) Please be careful with that option: You may have only one try!

(3)Select here the time range of the conversion.
(4)You may select here the conversion of the trends  ((warning) is time consuming and can be rather performed afterwards)
(5)Starts the whole conversion including the settings data base.
(6)Starts the conversion of the patient master data and of the evaluations - without the settings.


...

Smart conversion

The smart converson conversion always converts always the whole DB, but copies only CST-files, which are in the scope configured in (3). All other evaluations are marked internally as "smartConverted" and are only copied, if the relevant evaluation is opened up.

In case the user tries to open a smartConverted" evaluation where the relevant files cannot be found, a message dialog appears in which the user should select the directory of the relevant CST file. On top the option "Delete version 4 CST-File after smart converted..." can be activated, which will get the original evaluation removed from the version 4 data directory, after the evaluation has been stored in the verson version 5 system.

Advantages:

(tick) The conversion can be performed very quickly
(tick) Most probably disk space can be saved in the target system
(tick) It is possible to complete the smart convesion conversion after the conversion to a full conversion (see Finish the Smart conversion)

...

(error) The version 4 share must not be turned off as there is otherwise no more accessability access ability given to the old evaluations
(error) Trends trends may not be rebuilt completely
(error) All version 5 clients require aceess acceess to the share of the version 4 system

...

With (4) the conversion of trends can be activated.

Note

If this options gets acticatedactivated, all evaluation files will be opened by the server and the trends will be recreated, which can take long time..

We do not recommend to do during the conversion.

Trends may afterwards be created for every project in the administraton administration section.


Workflow

Conversion to a system without tenants

In case of

...

conversion from versions lower than 4.5.x

  1. Upgrade the custo diagnostic to the most current version of 4.5.x or higher
  2. Start custo manager.exe (version 4.5..x) once to ensure that the DB scheme is the current one.

...

In case of errors during the converson conversion of the settings, a dialog displaying the the problems appears. Those can be save later as well as Excel file and are stored in the Service Center logs in the path %PUBLIC%/Roaming/customed/...servicecenter.log

...

  1. Here you can see the number of the already converted DB records
  2. Hier you can see the errors, which have occured occurred in the relevant DB records
  3. Shows the current state (converted / total + speed by records per second)

...

Note

The displayed numbers of converted evaluatons evaluations "Successfully converted evaluations" may differ from the number CST files for the following reasons:

  • Multi day evaluations are merged
  • Archived and trend evaluations are not converted
  • Certain orphan states may not be converted

...

In this list it is possible to select with STRG+click, or SHIFT+Klick click single evaluations or a scope of evaluations, or with STRG+A the whole list and by (4) change → Import smart converted evaluations to change to the import dialog:

...


IDDescription
1Configures with how many threads in parallel the import should be performed 
(warning)This value should be selected with care: Per core not more than 5 threads should be used, as the system otherwise will be extremely slow (warning)
2Here it is possible to define an additional data directory, in which it should be searched for CST files. This is helful helpful in case evaluations wee moved or manually archived.
3If this option is active, evaluations are deleted from the version 4 data directory after the transfer to the version 5 system.
4Starts the import of the evaluations.


...

After the transfer of all evaluations or if you consider the transfers made to be suffientsufficient, the version 4 share can be moved to an archive media or deleted.

...

During the conversion it is possible to display the logs from the Service center beneath: %PUBLIC%/Roaming/customed/...servicecenter.log in an appropriate viewer. This way it is possible to quickly discover as soon as pssible possible during the conversion.. At the end of the conversion the whole error report cam always be saved as Excel file on top.

Question

Answer

Is it still possible to work during the conversion in the source system?

This is not recommended, as changes during the conversion may not be transferred.

I have created still evaluations in the source system during / after the conversion. How to proceed with those ones?

Those evaluations may be imported with the known limitations.
Is it possible for me to work during the conversion process already in the target system?No, this is not recommend as there is the risk that newly created data may be overwritten by the conversion.

I have only a small time frame for the real conversion. What should I do?

By using the Smart Conversion it is possible to convert as well big DBs quickly, without the need not copy CST files from one system to the other. After the completion if the smart conversion the customer may immediately continue to work with the version 5 system and the remaining CST file can be transferred afterwards in custo diagnostics version 5.

I have made still evaluatins evaluations in the version 4 system and the version 5 was running as well

The conversion process stores which evaluations already were converted. Hence it is possible always follow-up with the conversion. With the only new evaluations will be converted.
