Dealing with condition messages

During the upgrade process, you might encounter several types of conditions:

Minor condition messages: These condition messages are displayed on the screen. Follow the directions in the message to resolve the issue, then perform the upgrade again. If you are not sure how to resolve the condition, record the message and contact technical support.

Complex condition messages: These condition messages are displayed on the screen, but no solution is provided in the text, or the solution might be very complex. These conditions require advanced troubleshooting by experienced professionals. Record the message and contact technical support for troubleshooting assistance.
