Upgrade Considerations for Reports

Use this section as a guideline to plan your upgrade. The following installation and upgrade use cases are covered:

• Upgrade from an installed version earlier than Release 12.1
• Upgrade from Release 12.1 or Service Pack 12.1.1

Upgrade Actions:

• If you customized or changed any out-of-the-box reports, make a backup copy of the modified reports. Place the copies in a separate custom folder under the Public Folders/CA Reports/CA Clarity directory. The out-of-the-box reports are overwritten when the new Release 13.1 reports are installed.
• If you used any CA Clarity PPM universe objects, create a custom universe and link it to the CA Clarity PPM universe. The CA Clarity PPM universe is overwritten when the new Release 13.1 universes are installed.
