Delta mode is stuck in the loop

[ivanweiler]

Hello all,

When running php migrate delta --config=myconfigpath.xml process is stuck in the loop and stopped only with ctrl-c. Every time delta update is done, there is a message "Automatic restart in 5 sec. Use CTRL-C to abort" and it's started again, is this on purpose?

autoRestart property is never decreased at
https://github.com/magento/data-migration-tool-ce/blob/master/src/Migration/Mode/Delta.php#L123

Hi Ivan,
According to the official documentation
http://devdocs.magento.com/guides/v2.0/migration/migration-migrate-delta.html
it was done on purpose.
Reason: on live store orders, customers and other entities are created constantly and the migration tool in delta mode will catch it and migrate on the fly every 5 sec

Makes sense, thanks for explaining ;)
