The following document guides you through the upgrade process using the new Perceptive Content upgrade packages for Oracle, IN_DB_UTIL and IN_DB_UPGRADE.
You can use the IN_DB_UPGRADE package as an alternative to the traditional database incremental scripts that were previously and still available for database schema upgrades.
This collection of procedures and functions (package) is designed to provide a means for you to upgrade your Perceptive Content database schema in a manner that facilitates the execution of the most timeconsuming schema changes in uptime to reduce the duration of downtime events during database upgrades.
This package supports upgrading the inuser database schema to version 7.9.0.0 (22.2) or 7.7.0.0 (22.1 and EP4) or 7.5.0.0 (EP3 and EP2) from 7.7.0.0 or 7.5.0.0 or 7.4.0.3 or 7.2.3.0 or 7.2.0.0 or 7.1.5.2 or 7.1.4.0 or 7.1.3.3.
This upgrade package is ideal for customers with very large databases who might benefit from executing the longest running operations in uptime, resulting in a much shorter downtime event during the upgrade.
This upgrade package is ideal for customers with very large databases who might benefit from executing the long running operations in uptime, resulting in a much shorter downtime event during the upgrade.
For upgrades with a starting schema version less than 7.5.0.0, using this package to upgrade the database schema involves the duplication of the IN_DOC table as well as several large indexes. This requires the allocation of additional storage for the duration of the upgrade, which can be reclaimed afterwards if necessary.
