Upgrading Data Protection for SQL Server
You can upgrade Data Protection for SQL Server from an earlier version of the software.
Procedure
- Download the updates.
- To install the updates, run setupfcm.exe.
-
To start Microsoft Management Console (MMC), click Start > All Programs > IBM Spectrum
Protect > Data Protection for Microsoft SQL Server > DP for SQL Management Console.
When you start MMC after you install the updates, the configuration wizard automatically starts. The configuration wizard guides you through the process of provisioning and installing the remaining files.
Depending on the software licenses that are found on the system, the configuration process varies. The wizard provides instructions to guide you through the process.
Attention: Do not run the VSS test that is available in the configuration wizard as this can delete any prior or existing backups for the selected node or server. -
If the configuration wizard does not start automatically, click IBM Spectrum
Protect in the
navigation tree, and click Configuration. Then, double-click
Wizards.
Note: It is mandatory that you run the configuration wizard at least once after setupfcm.exe completes.
