How to Upgrade Mart Models › Select Upgrade Options

Select Upgrade Options

If you are upgrading from CA ERwin DM Version 7.0 through 7.3.12, you can select the upgrade options for the main subject areas and transforms. At any time if you restart the upgrade process and select an existing working directory, the details you have selected previously are filled up automatically.

Follow these steps:

  1. On Upgrade Wizard, click Upgrade Options.
  2. Complete the fields. The following fields are not self-explanatory:
    Keep the Main Subject Area

    Specifies that you want to keep the main subject area.

    Keep the Diagrams for the Main Subject Area

    Specifies that you want to keep the diagrams for the main subject area.

    TimeOut (in Min)

    Specifies the time for which the utility waits for the following events:

    • Open an older version of the model and save it to disk: If a model version is not saved to disk in this time, this thread of the process is relaunched and the next model is saved.
    • Open a version of a model and save it to the latest release of 9.0 Mart: If a model is not saved in this time, the utility relaunches this thread of the process.

    Default: 60 minutes

    Retries for a Model

    Specifies the number of times the utility tries to open a model version. For example, suppose that you set the value of this parameter as 3. If a model version does not load within the time specified in the TimeOut field, the utility tries to open it again. The utility tries this three times; if it is still not successful, then it moves on to the next model version.

    Export Library Name

    Specifies a library in the destination Mart, where you want to copy the upgraded models. Use this option if you want to copy the upgraded libraries to a specific library. If no name is provided, the libraries are copied in the root of Mart.
