Running DBUpgradeTool for XML setup

DBUpgradeTool performs database updates according to the XML setup structures you provide.

Before you begin

  • Available, complete and correctly installed Content Manager server and Content Manager database (up and running).

Procedure

  1. Login to the server as a Windows user.
  2. Open a command line console from the \App\Setup\DBUpgradeTool\ directory.
  3. Run DBUpgradeTool.exe with -setup --applicationname "InfoShareAuthor" --path "XMLSetupStructure.xml" where XMLSetupStructure.xml is the XML file containing the structure for the database changes.
  4. Restart all components on all application servers:
    • Restart services.
    • Restart application pools.
    • Recycle com+ applications.

    LOVs, fields and card types are cached. The restart empties such caches so the new fields or values can be used.
