    Process definition migration to jbpm 6.1

    maulee17

      Hi,

       

      In my project, I am using spring to manage KnowledgeBase and StatefulKnowledgeSession.

      My process definitions are stored in file system. I am not using any repository for that.

       

      Now if I want to migrate from jbpm 5.3.1 to jbpm 6.1, do I need to store process definition in a Guvnor repository and then do the Migration, with the migration utility provided from RedHat ??

       

      Can I run the migration utility on file system ?

       

      Thanks,

      Maulee

          if you use spring you can still use same approach, read process definitions from file system. There is no hard requirement to use kjars as deployable units though it's recommended as it provides lots of features and is the most flexible deployment strategy when it comes to business assets (processes rules, etc).

           

          So by upgrading libraries and apis you should be able to run your application in pretty much same fashion.

            I am using file system for storing Process definition and will continue with the same after 6.1 upgrade. So I dont need any migration for that. right ?
