The Migration Utility is a command-line tool built to upgrade the schema of an ODS instance to the latest version. The utility has out-of-the-box support for migrating an as-shipped ODS to the latest version. With additional customized scripting, the utility can be easily adapted and used to migrate extended ODS instances. ODS shared instances may take advantage of this utility. For year-specific instances, migration may not be a concern as a new ODS is created at the beginning of every school year.
