The SmartPlant Foundation Server Manager Upgrade Wizard allows you to upgrade the database. You can also create a backup of the database before the upgrade begins.

The Upgrade Wizard compiles a list of available upgrade paths based on the version of SmartPlant Foundation and SPO/E Core that is consistent with the data in the selected site. When you start the Upgrade Wizard, the software reads a control file that defines the available upgrades. The control file, UpgradeControls.xml, and Upgrade folder are delivered to the SPFServerManager subfolder of the product installation folder. For example, [installation directory]\SmartPlant\Foundation\SPFServerManager\UpgradeControls.xml.

  1. In Server Manager, right-click a site and click Tools > Upgrade Wizard from the quick menu.

  2. In the Upgrade Path page, select your upgrade path from the list of available upgrades and click Next.

  3. In the Upgrade Options page, select the actions you would like the Upgrade Wizard to perform and click Next.

    • To upgrade and transform your data, click Upgrade data in the database.

    • To back up your database, click Back up database before upgrade and enter or browse to the location where you want the backup files to be saved.

  4. In the Ready to Upgrade page, review the scripts that the Upgrade Wizard is preparing to execute and click Next to begin the upgrade.

    • If the wizard runs a procedural SQL script (PL/SQL for Oracle or T-SQL for SQL Server), the tracing output for the script is saved to the Server Manager temp directory under the default root path in a separate log file, UpgradeWizardPLSQLOutput.log or UpgradeWizardTSQLOutput.log, depending on the type of script that was run. The script results are also written to the main log file, UpgradeWizardlog.xml.

    • Critical errors cause the upgrade to stop. Click Back to make changes to your upgrade selections.

    • Non-critical errors are logged, but the upgrade continues.

  5. In the Upgrade Results page, click Finish to view the log file.

    • Once the SPO/E Core site is configured, you must recycle the application pools to avoid errors.

    • Server Manager logs every action it performs in a log file called UpgradeWizardlog[date]-[time].xml saved in the temp directory under the default root path (for example, C:\SmartPlant Foundation Server Files\Temp\ServerManager).
