Abstract

A method for determining a range of files to be migrated is disclosed, comprising: comparing the source system environment to be migrated with a set of incremental target system environments, to discover the change files in each of the target system environments relative to the source system environment, wherein each target system environment in the set of incremental target system environments comprises software on which the migration target application depends, and the software contained in the different target system environments is incremental; classifying the change files into different change patterns according to the change types of the change files in each comparison and the different change types of the change files among multiple comparisons; and determining a range of files to be migrated according to the change pattern.
