How to Upgrade a 6.0 Database

The upgrade procedure from 6.0, including pre- and post-upgrade tasks, is summarized in the following sections. Briefly, you must:

1. Run a pre-flight check script before you upgrade your CMS.

   This script estimates how long it will take to update the event participant records and migrate them to the new database table.

2. Upgrade your CMS.

   The upgrade will automatically update participant records to support the updated RLS model.

3. Run a script to edit the Wgn3EventParticipant database table after upgrading the CMS.

   Theis script redefines the AddressUID columns as NOT NULL to ensure that email addresses are mandatory for participants in this database table.
