First we used TfsImport to import a 2008 TFS into a secondary 2012 collection, but noting the database schema of the imported data didn't match the original 2012 we weren't happy to use it going forward so we used TfsIntegration to migrate just the code and comments over to the original 2012 "DefaultCollection". All worked great. We didn't have a need for anything more than the core code and comments.

TFS 2012.2 (Update 2)

Very difficult to setup and configure and significant customization required when working with TFS 2012.2 (Update 2).

Good effort but didn't worked when trying to transfer data between TFS 2012 servers

A nice idea but it tries to migrate all the data at once, storing everything in memory. What that means is that when you try to push a significant amount of data through it, it just explodes with an out of memory exception. It's also x86 so it has a pretty restrictive memory cap as it is.

It has a database which it uses to store migration settings, so it seems as if it could also use this to store the data it's migrating, because at the moment it's not much use.

It just does not work. Avoid.

  • Clearcase View Drives not mounting

    • Hi, When i configure the tool for detailed migration from  clearcase to TFS, the dynamic view drive is identifying only the M drive even though it is mapped to A drive.Using M drive the migration doesnt happen at all. 
      Can any one specify the reason, why only M drive is identified.
      
      regards

  • HP ALM Adapter

    • Is there an adapter for easy synchronization of defects between TFS 2010 and HP ALM?
    • Checkout HP ALM Synchronizer. 
    • There is no "easy" synchronization for defects between TFS and HP ALM.  You will be adding numerous fields to both to capture the data from the other system as there are very few fields that are able to truly synchronize.  Read all the documentation from HP and TFS on the synchronization (be prepared for a complex mapping solution especially if you have highly customized both systems).  
  • Server Consolidation

    • I need to consolidate several TFS2010 servers.  Would this be the tool to accomplish this effort?
  • A proejct with ClearCase/ClearQuest UCM integration

    • Does TFS supports Rational project migration that uses ClearCase/ClearQuest UCM integration? Will the linkage inforamtion between CC/CQ be preserved?
