Teamsite Upgrade to 6.5

System

Hi Guys,

In my environment I have currently two TeamSite versions 5.5.1 and 5.5.2. I am planning to Upgrade 6.5 version in near future.

I would like to know the feedback on the my TeamSite Upgrade plan. Here are the steps I am following,

Copy the workflows, templates, deployments (OD and DD), custom scripts from V5.5.1 to V5.5.2
Stop V5.5.2
Copy the store from v5.5.1 to v5.5.2
Start the v5.5.2
--
Install the 6.5 Version on New server
Copy all the custom scripts, workflows, templates, OD and DD cfgs from V5.5.2 to V6.5
Stop V6.5
Copy the stores from V5.5.2 to V6.5
Start the the server V6.5

And also let me know if I need to run iwconvert tool on V5.5.1 to convert to V5.5.2.

Thanks in Advance

I would check with support - I don't remember where/when the iwconvert process was required - whether it was going to 5.5.x or explicitly to 5.5.2.

Exepect to spend a good deal of time working on verifying/porting *all* customizations (workflows, DCTs, PTs, FormAPI (was that in 5.5.1?), custom menu items, etc.)

Also - you didn't mention what platform(s) / OS's you're dealing with. There are a number of additional items you need to take into account if you're dealing with Windows.

Thanks Ghoti for your reply. I am on Solaris, I just read through the Forums that there is no need for id Mapping, we can just copy the passwd and group file from old server to new server. Please let me know if I need to take care of any other issues.

Hi,
You should contact support prior to upgrading if you have any questions prior to upgrading. Make sure that all your hardware and software is compatible with the new version that you are upgrading to (compatibility matrices are on Support). You may also find this presentation from BT helpful.
