Upgrading an Enterprise Database from a Previous Version
If you have an existing enterprise repository that was created in Version 9 or later of the ReliaSoft applications, you can transfer or convert all of the existing data into a new database that is compatible with the latest version.
All of the same requirements for creating a new enterprise database apply here (e.g., you must have an established database server and the necessary permissions to create a database on the server). In addition, you must be a member of the Admin group in the database to perform the task.
Upgrading an enterprise repository will also upgrade any library files and/or templates that are stored within that database.
Tip: If you need to be able to upgrade an enterprise database without using a ReliaSoft desktop application (i.e., without taking up one of the available license seats), you can access this same feature from the ReliaSoft Admin tool.
Upgrading from Version 9 or Above
It is strongly recommended that you create a backup of the enterprise repository to be upgraded. The upgrade process converts the database itself to the latest version. This change cannot be undone.
To upgrade the database, choose File > Manage Database > Upgrade Enterprise Repository.
In the window, specify the enterprise database that you wish to upgrade. Click OK to start the process.
