Edit the vwupgrade property file to
set property values for the database upgrade from version 3.5.
In this task you will edit the vwupgrade property
file to provide Content Engine connection
and authentication information, the path to the fnsw/local/sd or \fnsw_loc\sd directory
from your 3.5 system, the character expansion value and whether to
override security errors during the conversion from the 3.5 release.
You will then run the vwupgrade tool to upgrade
the Process Engine database
to version 5.0.
- Open
your completed Installation and Upgrade Worksheet file.
Tip: In the worksheet file, verify that the command is enabled. To view only Process
Task Manager values, filter by Process Task
Manager in the Installation or Configuration
Program column.
- Copy the vwupgrade.properties.sample file
to vwupgrade.properties and edit the vwupgrade.properties file
using the values from the worksheet.
- Change the current directory to pe_install_path\data where pe_install_path is
the location of the program files that was specified during the Process Engine installation.
- Using a text editor, edit the vwupgrade.properties file
by providing the parameter values for your configuration.
- Enter the parameters, one parameter per line in the
following format:
parameter name=value

46to47.OverrideErrors |
This is the Override Errors value

the users / groups not being migrated. The recommended default value
is to set this to false. |

the Server Host Names value in the worksheet. These
names must match the names provided in the serverlist used
when you ran the PEInit -V command. |
