Save the Modeling Catalog After Model Type Deprecation
You must save the Modeling Catalog to create a new legacy database after
the model deprecation process has completed. Failure to do so requires
that you rerun the deprecation process again if you ever need to restore
the legacy database.
To save the Catalog, open an xterm window and type:
cd <$SPECHOME>/SS../SS-Tools/SSdbsave -c ..
This saves your current Modeling Catalog to the legacy database without
the deprecated model types.
It is also recommended that you check the Application Views of the new
models to ensure that they do not retain any of the old model type’s
applications. If they do have them, place the Application View into Edit
mode and select and destroy the old applications. Then, select
Rediscover Applications from the Edit menu. Rediscover
Applications polls the device to discover applications supported by the
firmware and reconfigures the Application View accordingly.
