This section describes actions which must be taken when upgrading from a previous release.
Care must be taken so that the upgrade is only performed when no recovery data exists. That is; no outstanding recovery records, no suspect transaction records, no migrated transaction records, and no pending error records. Use the Adabas Transaction Manager Online Services to purge any outstanding records before an upgrade is performed. Recovery information from previous releases can not be migrated to Version 8.2 (with the exception of ET Data – see below).
If your site uses ET Data then current ET Data must be migrated from the old ET Data Adabas file repository to the new recovery file repository. Refer to the section Copy ET Data for detailed instructions on how to perform this migration.
