How to Upgrade Mart Models › Select Models

Select Models

The libraries and models of the source Mart are displayed in the form of a tree. You can select an entire library or an individual model under a library to upgrade. This selection and the versions you selected previously, determine the models and versions you want to upgrade. For example, suppose that you have selected to upgrade the top five versions. If you select nine models on the Select Models window, the top five versions of all the nine models are upgraded.

Follow these steps:

  1. Click Select Models on Upgrade Wizard.

    The models that satisfy the criteria selected in the Data to Upgrade dialog are displayed. If you restart the upgrade process, only those models that are not upgraded are available for selection.

  2. Select the libraries or individual models that you want to upgrade.

    If a library or model name contains special characters (?, $, ‘, \), they are converted to underscore (_) when displayed on this dialog.

    Note: If a library or model name contains a forward slash ('/'), it is not upgraded.

  3. Click Finish.

    Upgrading starts and the Upgrade Progress dialog displays the progress.

Pause and play

The Upgrade Mart utility lets you pause the process any time and start again. When you pause, the utility completes upgrading the current model before stopping. When you restart the upgrade process, the utility continues from the point it had stopped. The utility then displays the models that are not yet upgraded in the list of models that you had selected. If there are several models remaining, you can select a few to upgrade. If you select the same working directory, the source and destination Mart and the model version details are filled up automatically.

If your source Mart version is older than CA ERwin DM 8.0, it is upgraded to the current release of 8.0 only once. If you upgrade a model to the current release of 8.0 and then pause the upgrade process, the option to upgrade to the current release of 8.0 does not display again.

Note: When you pause and restart the upgrade process, you can select all the remaining models or a few models from the original list of models. Suppose that you have three libraries A, B, and C in the catalog and you select only A to upgrade. Suppose that there are ten models in library A. If you pause after the fifth model and you restart the process, only the remaining five models from library A are displayed.
