The following shows an overview of the procedure for upgrading all HiRDBs at the same time in a multi-HiRDB environment. For details about how to upgrade, see 1.4 Upgrading HiRDB.

To upgrade all HiRDBs:

1. Delete all of the existing versions of HiRDB from the OS using the pdsetup -d command. Respond with y to the KFPS00036-Q message (if you respond with n, the original environment is kept unchanged, so HiRDB is not replaced by the new version even if the new version of HiRDB is installed and set up).
2. Install the new version(s) of HiRDB.
3. Register all of the new version of HiRDB in the OS using the pdsetup command.

The following shows an overview of the procedure for upgrading only some of the HiRDBs in a multi-HiRDB environment. For details about how to upgrade, see 1.4 Upgrading HiRDB.

To upgrade only some of the HiRDBs:

1. Delete the HiRDBs being upgraded from the OS using the pdsetup -d command. Respond with y to the KFPS00036-Q message (if you respond with n, the original environment is kept unchanged, so HiRDB is not replaced by the new version even if the new version of HiRDB is installed and set up).
2. Install the new version of HiRDB.
3. Register the upgraded HiRDBs in the OS using the pdsetup command.

If you are using JP1/Software Distribution to distribute HiRDB online, HiRDB cannot be registered automatically in the OS (execution of the pdsetup command) after HiRDB is distributed.
