If you go to where you have installed ODM 8.5, you will find a directory called "teamserver/bin".
In here you will then find two files, "defaultExtension.brdx" and "defaultExtension.brmx".
Make a copy of these files, then open them up and compare the contents with your JRules 7.1 versions to see if there are any differences.
Once you have got these upto date, then you can upload them to your ODM 8.5 Decision Server database by going through the Installation Wizard (Configure->Installation Settings Wizard) when you set up your new ODM 8.5 Decision Centre database.
You need to do all this before you migrate the old 7.1 database to 8.5 as it expects the new target ODM 8.5 database to be there when you run the migration Ant task.
If you need any more help on this, just let me know.
