Notes and Notices

Upgrade Considerations

A full database backup before the upgrade is strongly recommended.

Upgrades from Metalogix Archive Manager for Files 7.4 or later releases are supported. If Metalogix Archive Manager for Files products or components are installed on other computers in a distributed architecture, all products or components must be updated to the same version. Upgrade can take a considerable amount of time due to database model changes in version 8.0.

Metadata for search indexes from Firebird© and search history from SQLite© will be migrated to new database schema objects when you upgrade from version 8.1.1 or earlier. For Microsoft SQL Server©, two additional databases are required. For Oracle©, two additional tables are required. Additions to the existing database and subsequent data migration are managed by the upgrade wizard and does not require any additional steps by the administrator. However, if you wish to install the database schema objects manually, the scripts used to install the additional databases or schema objects are available in the installation media sub-folders which are created when you extract the installation files from the installer package.
