CMS

When upgrading your CMS, note the issues below.

Back up your database!

Before you upgrade your CMS, back up your CMS database.

Database cleanup operations delete corrupt data

If upgrading from version 5.0, database cleanup operations may delete corrupt data from your user tables and event audit tables. If this happens, details of deleted records are written to diagnostic tables.

Database user accounts

If upgrading an Oracle CMS, new Oracle user privileges may be required.

If upgrading a SQL Server CMS from version 5.0, a new database role is required.

Licenses

When the CMS upgrade is complete, you may need to reinstall your license files, or install new license files before you can start using CA DLP.

Your license files unlock the policy modules available to your organization. For information about obtaining and installing license files, see the Administration console online help—search the index for 'license files'.
