The system installs the HxGN EAM database by completing the following process. You can also upgrade and configure the database manually.
Only Microsoft SQL Server database administrators or equivalent should perform any
function described in this chapter.
Before upgrading an existing database, Hexagon strongly recommends backing up the existing database and keeping a copy of the back-up in a safe place.
The system updates the log directory you created in the previous section, and then creates all of the scripts to the directory. Using Microsoft SQLCMD, the system executes the scripts created by the Installation Wizard, using the Microsoft SQLCMD utility.
If you are upgrading and configuring the database manually, Hexagon recommends that you use the following syntax when executing the Microsoft SQLCMD utility:
|
sqlcmd |
-S ‘servername’ |
|
d ‘databasename’ |
|
|
-U ‘userid’ |
|
|
-p ‘password’ |
|
|
i ‘file name with path’ |
|
|
o ‘log file name with path’ |
If you clicked Yes, the system automatically runs the following scripts. If you clicked No, you must run the scripts manually, one at a time, in the given order listed below, as the System Administrator user you created previously.

To uninstall the Microsoft SQL Server database, back up the entire database, and then drop it. Hexagon strongly recommends that you back up the database before you drop it.
-
See the Microsoft SQL Server documentation for more information on how to back up the database.

As a part of regular database maintenance, you must periodically remove redundant rows from sequence tables. To clean the database, open the Management Studio and execute: execute p_cleanout_id_tables
