1.3 Upgrading HiRDB

This section describes the procedure for upgrading HiRDB.

Upgrading refers to installing a later version or revision of HiRDB (for example, when VV or RR in the VV-RR-ZZ format HiRDB version number increases).

When upgrading a HiRDB/Parallel Server, upgrade all units constituting the HiRDB/Parallel Server so that they have the same version of HiRDB.

Note
  • When upgrading HiRDB, do not uninstall the existing HiRDB. Install the new version of HiRDB over the existing version.
  • There are some notes concerning upgrading that apply when the security audit facility is used. For details about these notes, see the HiRDB Version 9 System Operation Guide.
  • There are notes about upgrading to version 07-03 or later by using the Java stored procedures and functions. For details about the notes, see 1.3.4 Using Java stored procedures and functions.
