5.5.2 Backing Store

System

The 5.5.x Upgrade Supplement Package states that "TeamSite 5.5.2 uses a new backing store format, which is dramatically faster and more efficient than the format used in TeamSite 5.0.x and earlier."

Does this mean that 5.5.1 also uses this new backing store format? Or should an upgrade from 5.5.1 to 5.5.2 also follow the instructions given for 5.0.x and prior versions?

The new TeamSite backing store format starts with TeamSite 5.5.0 release. Thus, with TeamSite 5.5.1, you already have the high-performance server and you do not need to go through the store conversion process (that is required for TS 4.x and TS 5.0.x systems). TeamSite 5.5.2 is a maintenance release for TS 5.5.1; the upgrade installation from 5.5.1 to 5.5.2 is very simple. Download the 5.5.2 software and run the Installer, it should recognize that you have 5.5.1 on the system and do the proper upgrade.
