-#### 3. Rename database tables
+If your GitLab CI installation uses **MySQL** and your GitLab CE uses **PostgreSQL**

+You can check that by looking into GitLab CI and GitLab CE (or EE) database configuration file:

-#### 5. Create a database dump
-
-In this step, you will need to know information about both your CI and CE (or
-EE) databases, such as the server types, hosts, and ports, and the usernames and
-passwords.
-
-We can obtain the necessary information from the `config/database.yml` files for
-each installation.
-
-1. Get the information for the CI database:
-
-    ```sh
-    cat /home/gitlab_ci/gitlab-ci/config/database.yml
-    ```
-
-1. Then for the CE (or EE) database:
-
-    ```sh
-    cat /home/git/gitlab/config/database.yml
-    ```
-
-1. The output of each command should look something like this:
-
-    ```yml
-    production:
-      adapter: postgresql (or mysql2)
-      encoding: utf8
-      reconnect: false
-      database: GITLAB_CI_DATABASE
-      pool: 5
-      username: DB_USERNAME
-      password: DB_PASSWORD
-      host: DB_HOSTNAME
-      port: DB_PORT
-      # socket: /tmp/mysql.sock
-    ```
-
-1. Depending on the values for `adapter`, you will have to use one of three
-   different commands to perform the database dump.
-
-    **NOTE:** For any of the commands below, you'll need to substitute the
-    values `IN_UPPERCASE` with the corresponding values from your **CI
-    installation's** `config/database.yml` files above.
-
-    1. If both your CI and CE (or EE) installations use **mysql2** as the `adapter`, use
-       `mysqldump`:
-
-        ```sh
-        mysqldump --default-character-set=utf8 --complete-insert --no-create-info \
-          --host=DB_USERNAME --port=DB_PORT --user=DB_HOSTNAME -p GITLAB_CI_DATABASE \
-          ci_application_settings ci_builds ci_commits ci_events ci_jobs ci_projects \
-          ci_runner_projects ci_runners ci_services ci_tags ci_taggings ci_trigger_requests \
-          ci_triggers ci_variables ci_web_hooks > gitlab_ci.sql
-        ```
-
-    1. If both your CI and CE (or EE) installations use **postgresql** as the
-       `adapter`, use `pg_dump`:
-
-        ```sh
-        pg_dump -h DB_HOSTNAME -U DB_USERNAME -p DB_PORT \
-          --data-only GITLAB_CI_DATABASE -t "ci_*" > gitlab_ci.sql
-        ```
-
-    1. If your CI installation uses **mysql2** as the `adapter` and your CE (or
-       EE) installation uses **postgresql**, use `mysqldump` to dump the
-       database and then convert it to PostgreSQL using [mysql-postgresql-converter]:
-
-        ```sh
-        # Dump existing MySQL database first
-        mysqldump --default-character-set=utf8 --compatible=postgresql --complete-insert \
-          --host=DB_USERNAME --port=DB_PORT --user=DB_HOSTNAME -p GITLAB_CI_DATABASE \
-          ci_application_settings ci_builds ci_commits ci_events ci_jobs ci_projects \
-          ci_runner_projects ci_runners ci_services ci_tags ci_taggings ci_trigger_requests \
-          ci_triggers ci_variables ci_web_hooks > gitlab_ci.sql.tmp
-
-        # Convert database to be compatible with PostgreSQL
-        git clone https://github.com/gitlabhq/mysql-postgresql-converter.git -b gitlab
-        python mysql-postgresql-converter/db_converter.py gitlab_ci.sql.tmp gitlab_ci.sql.tmp2
-        ed -s gitlab_ci.sql.tmp2 < mysql-postgresql-converter/move_drop_indexes.ed
-
-        # Filter to only include INSERT statements
-        grep "^\(START\|SET\|INSERT\|COMMIT\)" gitlab_ci.sql.tmp2 > gitlab_ci.sql
-        ```
