Migration Guide for Allegro Platform Products Allegro EDM (previously ADW) October 2019 103 Product Version 17.4-2019 © 1999-2019 All Rights Reserved. Migrating to Release 17.2-2016 After installing and configuring the new release, you need to complete a set of migration tasks before you can work on the existing designs. When you upgrade Allegro EDM from an earlier release, ensure that the database schema is up-to-date with the latest Allegro EDM release. Important As a standard practice, before any database upgrade, create a backup of your production database. If your setup has an MLR environment, such as a 16.5 Master Library Server and 16.6 Designer Servers, refer to the Supporting Multiple Library Releases section in the Allegro EDM Configuration Guide. Before you update the Allegro EDM component database, ensure that: ■ the Allegro EDM server is not currently available to the Allegro EDM client. ■ you have administrator privileges to run the Allegro EDM uprev utility. Updating the Allegro EDM component database involves the following tasks: 1. Updating Allegro EDM Component Database 2. Migrating Flow Files 3. Updating Project Files 4. Customizing Project Workspaces
