HPTrim to OpenText Core Content Management Migration

Transition from legacy HP TRIM records management to OpenText Core Content Management while maintaining regulatory compliance, preserving complex record hierarchies, and ensuring zero disruption to critical business processes. 

Source

  • HP TRIM Versions 6.x, 7.x, 8.x, 9.x and later
  • HP Records Manager

Target

  • OpenText Core Content Management 
Export-only option: Archive TRIM records for long-term compliance retention without migrating to a new platform 

Common challenges

  • Migrating classification schemes and retention schedules to OpenText Core Content Management categories 
  • Preserving record numbering schemes and container hierarchies 
  • Converting TRIM's security caveats and access controls to OpenText Core Content Management permissions 
  • Handling records with multiple electronic documents or no documents

  • Redirecting links that lead to archived content

What can make these migrations complex?

Records Management Complexity

HP TRIM's records management DNA creates unique migration complexity. Built specifically for government and regulated industries, TRIM's classification schemes, disposal schedules, and security caveats have no direct equivalents in general-purpose ECM platforms. The system's record numbering schemes, container hierarchies, and audit trail requirements demand specialized handling to maintain compliance and chain of custody.

Record-to-Document Model Gap

TRIM's architecture separates electronic documents from their record metadata—a document can exist in multiple records, and records can exist without documents. This many-to-many relationship, combined with TRIM's stringent access controls and security classifications, requires careful mapping to OpenText's document-centric model.

Legacy Schema Variability

Legacy TRIM installations often span versions 6.x through 9.x, with inconsistent metadata schemas, custom fields added over decades, and classification schemes that evolved with changing regulatory requirements.

FAQ

Can you migrate TRIM classification schemes to OpenText Core Content Management? 
Yes. We map TRIM classification schemes to OpenText categories and folders, preserving the hierarchical structure and metadata requirements your users depend on. Custom fields and record types are transformed to OpenText equivalents. 
What happens to disposal schedules and retention rules? 
TRIM disposal schedules are mapped to OpenText retention policies. We preserve disposal triggers, retention periods, vital records flags, and legal hold status to maintain regulatory compliance. 
Can you migrate records that reference multiple electronic documents? 
Yes. We handle TRIM's unique record-to-document relationships, including records with multiple documents, documents referenced by multiple records, and records without electronic documents. 
How do you preserve TRIM's security caveats and access controls? 
We translate TRIM's security classifications and access controls to OpenText permission structures, maintaining the principle of least privilege while adapting to OpenText's security model. 
Can this migration be executed in phases? 
Yes. We support phased migrations by record type, classification, department, or date range, allowing TRIM to remain operational while you gradually transition to OpenText. 
Do you support export-only migrations for archival purposes? 
Yes. If you're decommissioning TRIM but need to retain records for compliance, we can export your records with full metadata and audit trails to long-term archival storage.
