Hi all, Just wondering if there is any issues in loosing data when upgrading HPDM from 5.0.6 to 5.0.8?

 

Looking at upgrading and want to use the database from 5.0.6

 

Anything else that I should be wary about as well?

 

Thank you.

Hello Jads88,

 

I have not seen any issues while upgrading HPDM. I have upgraded from the first HPDM 5.0 to SP1, SP2, 5.0.3, 5.0.6 and even to the latest 5.0.8.. never had issues. If you SQL database, make sure to do a backup and give complete access (read/write) to the user added in HPDM. Even if there have been no issues, I would always suggest to create a snapshot if you are using VM.
