RE: Sharded Database migration and merge issues

Hi All,

We have a client who has around 15 shards and one default DB running in Liferay 6.2. Now while doing upgradation to Liferay DXP we followed steps mentioned in below link :

https://dev.liferay.com/discover/deployment/-/knowledge_base/7-0/upgrading-sharded-environment

From above link we are able to successfully migrate all shards and Default DB but it did not merge the shards data in default DB. As we have Liferay enterprise license we raised the same issue to  Liferay. But Liferay recommends that DB upgrade process does not merge data and that has to be done manually.

Has anyone done similar thing ever? Need help.

If the official solution is not suitable for your customer, you can follow this other approach which merges all shards in one database schema:

Let me know your thoughts about it.

​​​​​​​Thanks.
