Preparing for an UpgradeBefore upgrading, you should do the following:• Perform test upgrades.Borland strongly recommends running test upgrades against copies of current production databases.• Create an upgrade schedule.Plan your server upgrade when it will inconvenience the smallest number of users. A server configurationcannot be running during some of the steps you take before and during the upgrade.You may want to planthe server upgrade at the end of the workday or perhaps on a weekend. If you have a large repository ora slow system, the upgrade process could be time consuming. Depending on the size of your databaseand whether you must convert files before upgrading, you might need to schedule several downtimes,perhaps a series of consecutive weekends. For example, you might schedule one weekend for theconversions and one for vault verification. If you allow a few weekends for the upgrade process, be awarethat you can continue to use your server configuration on the older release in production between the steps,but make backups before and after each of these steps to prevent loss of data.Advise your team ahead of time that you plan to make this transition during a specified period of time, andadvise them when they will need to have the latest version of a StarTeam client installed. Unless specificallystated, StarTeam clients for a given release work with that StarTeam Server release, one release back,and one release forward. When an older client works with a newer server, the client cannot access newfeatures. For example, the older client does not have any new menu commands.• Backup the server configuration.Make certain you have current, verified backups of the files and folders for the server configuration (databasefiles, archive files, and so on) prior to starting important steps in the upgrade process.Overview of the Upgrade ProcessThe following table provides an overview of the upgrade process.
