AEM6 with CRX2

[Bxxs93]

I have some Questions about AEM6 with CRX2 :

- Is there an installation of AEM6 which comes with CRX2 or do i have to upgrade a CQ5 Version to AEM6 to run AEM6 with CRX2?

- Which CRX2 Version should i use to run with AEM6?

- How can i transfer content with the commandline (in Linux) like the Package Manager is doing ? Is there a option to do it the same way with the commandline (no restriction about the filesize, in the Package manager there are some restrictions about it)

thx a lot

You can do an 'In-place upgrade' which will use your existing CRX2 with AEM 6.0. Refer here [1]

From http://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/aem/6-0/deploy/upgrade.html

If you plan on running AEM 6 with a CRX 2 backend, you can simply run the jar at this point. However, note that for all upgrades from versions up to and including AEM 5.5 this needs to be explicitly stated via the "crx2" runmode option when the AEM 6.0 jar is first started. To do this, run the quickstart with the following command:

java -jar aem-quickstart.jar -r crx2

If the runmode is not specified, the AEM 6.0 instance will start with a new CRX 3 repository instead of the existing CRX 2 one.
