Upgrading the Database After Upgrading to a New Archibus Release
Follow these procedures for updating your database after upgrading to a new Archibus release.
Before upgrading the database, you can check its current state by using the Validate Schema feature of the Update Database Wizard . This action alerts you to violations of "best practice" database conventions. You can then fix any issues before you update the database with new values.
