Replacing an existing
Database Server with a
new station
When replacing the existing Database Server with a new one, you install all external and IMPAX 6.4
software in advance, during the pre-migration period, saving you considerable time during the migration
weekend.
Upgrading the IMPAX database schema to IMPAX 6.41.
Upgrading the 6.2 or later database schema to 6.4 requires the IMPAX Migration Tools. For Migration
Tools installation instructions, refer to the “Installing the IMPAX 6.4 Migration Toolbox” section in the
Pre-Migration Guide—IMPAX 6.2 or later to IMPAX 6.4.
CAUTION!
Any customization to the database such as extra indexes, stored procedures, or triggers may
affect the schema upgrade.We recommend removing such customizations prior to the upgrade.
Even if replacing the server or standalone station with a new one, perform the upgrade on the existing
server or station; you will later restore the upgraded database on the new server.
To upgrade the IMPAX database schema to IMPAX 6.4
1. Open a command prompt.
2. Change to the C:\mvf-mig6\bin directory.
3. Type
database-upgrade-script.bat -v {62 | 63}
