Upgrades

Strategy

The following deployment tasks related to the Database Module are

performed by your next level of support:

•Adds and configures the server(s) hosting the Database Module

•Installs Oracle

•Deploys the Database Module software onto the server(s)

Offline migration

Off-line migration of data between releases enables upgrading the Database Module from one release to the next without loss of data.

Once the Database Module is upgraded to a new release, it can be updated or reverted to previous maintenance releases.

Prior to an upgrade, the system automatically creates a backup of the existing database, assigning a backup name that contains the release name. That backup is then available if necessary to restore the database to an earlier release.

Task flows

Refer to Table 2, “Upgrade task flows” for a list of upgrade procedures contained in this section.
