Migration of Umberto 5.6 LCA projects to Umberto NXT LCA

[pbeilschmidt]

We are at present working on the implementation of a migration tool (Data Pump) that will allow users of the Umberto 5.6 for LCA software to convert their LCA project files to the new format of Umberto NXT LCA.

We will inform our users after having completed the internal conversion tests, and will be in contact with selected customers for field testing the conversion of their LCA models. Existing users of Umberto 5.6 for LCA will be informed directly as soon as the first public version of the Data Pump is available.

For any questions, please feel free to contact us.

We have finished a first version of the Data Pump and are now able to convert Umberto 5.6 LCA projects to Umberto NXT LCA project files.

This version is for internal testing only and needs more fine tuning.

We are inviting customers, who need Umberto 5.6 LCA project files to be converted to contact us, so that we can run trials together and identify pending issues. Contact us at support -at- umberto.de if you wish to participate in the testing.

The 'Model Migration Tool' is now available to users of Umberto 5.5 and 5.6 for LCA. Registered users will be informed directly by e-mail and will receive the download link for the migration tool.

This is a separate installation file that installs the model migration tool as an extention to Umberto NXT LCA.

It is indispensable to have the latest version of Umberto NXT LCA (v7.0.8.203, released July 16, 2013) installed to run the migration tool.

A documentation of the migration tool can be found in the user manual. Users can contact support@umberto.de, if they require assistance with the Model Migration Tool.

Users of Umberto 5.5 and Umberto 5.6 for LCA wishing to transfer their models to Umberto NXT LCA can use the Model Migration Tool.

The release of the latest version of Umberto NXT LCA (v7.0.10.209, released Sep 16, 2013) requires the installation of a matching version of the migration tool. Older versions of the tool will not work with the new version.

The 'Model Migration Tool' is available free-of-charge to users of Umberto 5.5 and 5.6 for LCA. Users should contact support@umberto.de and ask for a download link.
