IMPAX 6.5.3
(Topic number: 60244)
6.
Important!
Only specific IMPAX upgrade paths are supported and it may not be possible to upgrade
certain versions or SUs. More information is provided in the IMPAX 5.x6.x Service Update
and Hot Fix Migration Paths spreadsheet in the Additional documents section of the IMPAX
Knowledge Base > Main Knowledge Base Page.
Upgrading the database schema to 6.5.3 requires the IMPAX Migration Tools. For Migration Tools
installation instructions, see Installing the Migration Toolbox on a Windows server (topic number
11493) in the AS300 Preparing to Upgrade GuideIMPAX 6.2 or Later to IMPAX 6.5.3.
When upgrading the database, you will be prompted for the report source. When prompted, supply
the value stored in the requesting_service field in the Connectivity Manager database. To prepare
for the upgrade, identify this value in advance. See Identifying the report source (topic number
68030) in the AS300 Preparing to Upgrade GuideIMPAX 6.2 or Later to IMPAX 6.5.3.
CAUTION!
Any customization to the databasesuch as extra indexes, stored procedures, or triggersmay
affect the schema upgrade.We recommend removing such customizations prior to the upgrade.
To upgrade the IMPAX database schema to IMPAX 6.5.3
1. On the Database Server, open a command prompt.
2.
Change to the C:\mvf-mig6\bin directory.
3.
Type database-upgrade-script.bat -v version
where version is one of 52, 53, 62, 63, 64, or 65. If upgrading from IMPAX 6.5.x, the version
parameter can be omitted.
If running this command on a server that will be replaced, and that does not have .NET installed,
you will get a block_named_pipes.exe: not finding the dynamic link library
mscoree.dll error. Ignore this error and continue with the upgrade, since the replacement
server will be running Windows 2008, which installs .NET automatically.
4. At the prompt
Ready to upgrade database to version 6.5.3. Do you want to proceed [y, n]?
Type y to continue.
5. If prompted for the fully qualified host name of the login server, type the fully qualified host
name of the Application Server.
