Database administrator upgrade tasks

The Database administrator prepares the databases required for Content Cortex upgrade.

  • Review all rows assigned to the Database Server Administrator in the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet. While you complete the following preparation tasks, provide values for the rows that are appropriate to your installation.
    Tip: With the Data > Filter > AutoFilter command enabled, as it is by default in the worksheet file (p8_worksheet.xls), perform the following actions to quickly see only the properties assigned to a particular role:
    • Click the AutoFilter drop-down arrow in the Role column header and select DBA.
    • Further filter the result set by clicking the AutoFilter drop-down arrow in any of the other columns and selecting a value or clear a filter by selecting All.
  • Upgrade your database to a version that is supported by Content Cortex prior to upgrading the Content Cortex software. See Content Cortex Hardware and Software Requirements for version information.
