Upgrading from version 5.3.x or 6.0.x to version 7.0.x

  1. Upgrading of Dbvisit Standby software needs to be done on both the primary server and standby servers.

  2. For Oracle RAC, the upgrade needs to be done for each node.

  3. You may want to create a backup of the Dbvisit Standby install directory for rollback purposes. (All Dbvisit software is contained within the main directory).

  4. Existing 7.0 license keys are automatically applied to the new software.

  5. Existing 5.3.x and 6.0.x license keys are NOT valid for version 7.0. Contact Dbvisit Sales to obtain 7.0 license keys if you have current Dbvisit support.

  6. Your current Dbvisit Database Configuration (DDC) configurations will be upgraded and a new configuration (DDC) file will be created.  A backup of the original DDC file will be created.
