With the end of BioStar 1 technical support, Suprema has provided a DB Migration Tool for customers to conveniently move from BioStar 1 to BioStar 2. (BioStar 2.7.6 or higher, Relevant Article)

However, in the case of the DB Migration Tool provided by default when installing BioStar 2, it was a little difficult to analyze if a failure occurred because the tool did not leave a detailed log of the migration result.

So, Suprema shares the beta version of BioStar DB Migration Tool that can keep logs well as follows for customers.


<How to apply the beta BioStar DB Migration Tool>

1. Download the beta version of the BioStar DB Migration Tool and unzip it.

biostar-migration.zip - Download

2. Overwrite the unzipped file on <C:\Program Files\BioStar 2(x64)\biostar-migration>.

3. Move the data from BioStar 1 to BioStar 2 through the DB Migration Tool.


The beta version we are sharing this time is for customers who use BioStar 2.8.11 or lower.

This beta version will be included in the regular version of BioStar 2.8.12 and will be officially distributed.
