EF - Moving from AutomaticMigrations to Manual Migrations

Question

End of long day of testing various scenarios where I don\'t have to recreate a production database...

We started off with EF, and didn\'t get wise enough during developm

Answer 1

It should be possible:

1. Delete the __MigrationHistory table
2. Delete any migrations in your project
3. Disable automatic migrations in your migrations configuration class
4. Add-Migration InitialCreate
5. Update-Database -Script
6. Execute the portion of the script that creates the __MigrationHistory table and inserts a row into it
7. Repeat steps 1 & 6 for any other existing databases

I also strongly recommend reading Code First Migrations in Team Environments.
