Upgrade from your original production databases to the production
upgrade set. The process is similar to the process for upgrading the test
bed.
- Start the Maintenance Tool. Click Start > Programs > Rational Software > Rational ClearQuest > Rational ClearQuest
Maintenance Tool.
- From the Existing Connections list, select the
connection to the schema repository that you want to upgrade.
- On the Maintenance Tool menu, click Schema
Repository > Upgrade > Selected Connection.
- At the prompt to upgrade user databases, click Yes to
continue.
- Log in with Super User privileges.
- Select the feature level and enter the properties of the schema repository
to which you are upgrading. To perform an in-place upgrade, specify the properties
of the Source Schema Repository in the New
Schema Repository area. Then click Next.
- At the prompt to upgrade the schema repository, click Yes to
continue.
- Enter the properties for the first user database to which you are upgrading,
and click Next. Repeat until you have associated all
the user databases. Click Finish. Rational® ClearQuest® upgrades
your schema repository and user databases, and notifies you when the process
is complete. It records all actions in a text file in the \Temp directory.
- Verify that the upgrade process completed successfully:
- Read the status message carefully (scroll until you reach the end of the
message). Click Done.
- Test the application. Enter a few test records of each record type and
move them though the entire state model to verify that it is working correctly.
- After verifying that the upgrade completed successfully:
- Keep the original production databases locked or remove them, which prevents
users from using them.
- (Optional) Discard the test bed and test upgrade set.
