This section describes the procedure for upgrading HiRDB.
When upgrading a HiRDB/Single Server, also upgrade the corresponding utility special unit. Make sure that the HiRDB/Single Server and the corresponding utility special unit have matching versions of HiRDB.
When upgrading a HiRDB/Parallel Server, upgrade all units constituting the HiRDB/Parallel Server so that they have the same version of HiRDB.
Some default values for HiRDB system definition operands have changed from version 07-00 (default values have been changed to recommended values). Also, some operands no longer need to be specified. If you are upgrading from HiRDB Version 6 but do not want to change the default values, set v6compatible in the pd_sysdef_default_option operand. For details about the default values that have changed, the operands that no longer need to be specified, and the pd_sysdef_default_option operand, see the manual HiRDB Version 8 System Definition.
