If you used fixed content retention in a prior release
of FileNet® P8, you can operate
temporarily in legacy mode and transition to the new retention scheme
over time.
Temporarily operating in legacy mode
After upgrading IBM®
FileNet P8,
all preexisting fixed storage areas operate in legacy mode. Consider
legacy mode a temporary operating mode to use as you transition to
the new retention scheme.
Transitioning out of legacy mode
To transition a fixed storage area out of legacy retention
mode, update the class definition of the objects within the fixed
storage area to include a retention period.
