You can find Task management actions in the bottom menu.

  • Stop button — to stop the task execution;
  • Reset button — to reset the task, allows you to reset the task to its initial state;
  • Start button — to start the migration process;
  • Resume button — to resume the migration process;
  • Edit button — to edit the task;
  • Delete button — to delete the task;
  • Rollback button — to rollback the task;
  • Commit button — to commit the task.

Note: Database commit to a table is executed immediately after successful data migration.

Rollback and Commit are the DB Best Migration Platform operations.

Rollback performs post-actions (enable constraints/triggers, etc.).

Commit performs the following:

  • if you’re not using the staging tables: only post-actions (enable constraints/triggers, etc.);
  • if you’re using the staging tables: pre-actions (disable constraints/triggers, etc.) and post-actions (disable constraints/triggers, etc.). Between pre- and post-actions, data copy is performed from the staging table to the migration target.

The availability or inaccessibility of the buttons relative to the status of the task is shown in the following table:
