1.
After installation it asked me if I wanted to migrate things from 7. I said OK.
It was at it for a long time, and showed a lot of instruments being migrated that I don't even use. I remember GE specifically, because it was stuck on it for a long time. I don't even know what GE is. Anyway, after it finished, I went to Historical data, but those unfimiliar instruments were not there. Later I checked NT7 Historical data, but those were not there either. So where did they come from, where did they go? Not that I need them, or miss them at all, but I am wondering if I need to clean some folders/database/whatever up?
2. Looking at the log, it said Account migration failed, object reference not set to instance (or something to that effect, but I cannot copy that any more, see #3). When I go to the Accounts tab, there is an account with the correct number, with the format <bookie>!<act #>, and then a whole lot of 0s. That is fine, I guess, NT7 does the same thing. However, there is no associated connection in Connections. I could set it up manually, but is that okay? Or would it create some conflict with the other half baked instance?
3. After restarting NT8 the log was gone, no more mention of the previous mishaps, just a clean start. Why?
So what is to be done?
