Hi,

Is there any documentation so far on the migration from Fortress
to Merlin ? I think even a quick howto describing some of the pitfalls
would be very helpful..

This subject is largely a work in progress. So far I have not dealt with any Fortress to Merlin migration scenarios, only ECM to Fortress. However - in principal a Fortress to Merlin migration should be easier than a ECM to Merlin migration.


Important points:

  * merlin will do a lot of the work for you - in merlin land
    less information is better - merlin will do the grunt work
    for you

  * pooled lifestyle are not supported in native merlin -
    basically the best approach is to declare a component that
    provides the pool and service interface to access a pooled
    instance (lots of technical reasons backing this)

  * selectors are not supported - but if you need selection
    semantics then solutions are available using the finder
    facility - post some details about your scenario and we
    will help with the migration

Take a tour of the tutorials .. they provide a good insight into how merlin works and from that your should get a good idea of transition overhead. Normally a transition should be relatively easy. But there are special cases that require attention - and for the time being that means posting info to the list about your scenario.

Cheers, Stephen.


Thanks, - Filip
