This document describes migration tasks you need to perform for this release of Adabas Review. It covers the following topics:
To migrate to Adabas Review 4.8 SP1 from prior versions, consider and perform the following migration steps.
Adabas Review under Natural
Verify that any Adabas Review display programs or objects you have written or modified have unique names that do not begin with RD*, SR*, CR*, CX*, CS*, PU-* or BUFFERPOOL (these prefixes are reserved for use by Adabas Review programs). This will ensure that this migration process does not overwrite them.
Note:
Your user exits and
RVCALL* program modifications
are automatically migrated for you.
INPL the Adabas Review programs and DDMs from the INPL data set distributed with this release into the SYSREVDB library as described in Install Adabas Review under Natural, in your Adabas Review installation instructions.
If an existing Adabas Review repository file is used with a new version of SYSREVDB, the function REGEN ALL needs to be executed. For more information about REGEN ALL, read Regenerating All Display Programs.
