Chapter 1. Migration overview

If you use Red Hat Decision Manager 7.0 and install Red Hat Decision Manager 7.1, you must use the Decision Central migration tool provided with this release to migrate the applications that you created in Red Hat Decision Manager 7.0 to the new product. The reason for this migration requirement is that project data is restructured in Red Hat Decision Manager 7.1 so that each space (previously known as organizational unit) contains repositories that correspond to individual projects, instead of multiple projects in a single repository as in Red Hat Decision Manager 7.0. This improved structure means that you do not need to create and manage repositories in the new Decision Central and can focus on developing your business assets.

Red Hat Decision Manager 7.1 also contains Red Hat Business Optimizer updates that you may need to apply to the relevant Red Hat Business Optimizer assets in your project, if applicable.
