Review the descriptions of each upgrade procedure to determine
how to perform your upgrade.
You can have more than one installation, with the
same or different versions, of Rational® Synergy on
a given computer, for client and engine software. Your existing Rational Synergy databases
can run on one or more servers.
Method for performing upgrades
Follow the
upgrade procedures for each server.
- Create a 7.2 or later server,
and then, copy your databases to this new server, and upgrade them.
Databases can be copied to the new server by using ccmdb pack.
Then use ccmdb unpack. Perform this procedure when
you test Rational Synergy 7.2 or later.
After you have completed testing, perform this procedure again when
you upgrade production databases for live use.
