HP Device Manager 4.6 - Installation and Update Guide

Using an existing database
1. After the HPDM update is configured, an HP Device Manager Database Setup dialog opens. Select Use HP Device
Manager database at existing location, then click Next.
Note
The option Use HP Device Manager database at existing location means that HPDM uses the existing database instead of
creating a new one. For example, if you have HP Device Manager 4.5 and you want to update to 4.6, you can use the existing
version 4.5 database.
If you want to create a new database, you can choose Create New Database (see Creating a new database).
If you want to migrate an existing database to a new location, you can choose Migrate HP Device Manager database to new
location (see Migrate an existing database to a new location).
A processing dialog is displayed while a connection is made to the existing database. Then, a dialog appears notifying
you that the connection was successful. HPDM is now upgraded.
2. If a dialog appears notifying you that there was a problem connection to the existing database, click OK to specify the
database manually.
3. Select a configuration mode:
A. Import—You can import an existing database configuration file: for example, hibernate.cfg.
B. Setting Database—You configure the database manually.
