Upgrade from Teamsite 6.5 to 7.3.1

Selvaraj

We have gone through the release notes of 7.3.1 but could not find any information relating to upgrade from 6.5 version of teamsite. We are currently using 6.5 with Livesite 2.2 and would like to upgrade to 7.3.1. Environment is windows. If anyone has upgraded, please let us know the upgrade path.

whether a content store migration is possible or we should upgrade to 6.7 and then upgrade to 7.0 and then to 7.3.

We are planning to install fresh and then migrate content store.

If you are trying to do a fresh install, then why do you need to follow the upgrade path ?

go fresh with TS 7.3.1 and copy the store over, do iwidmap (after migrating the users to the new server). That should work.

The upgrade path i would prefer would be :
6.5.3 -> 6.7.2 -> 7.2.1 - > 7.3.1

Good luck !!!

Hi reji_kv

1). If he is going with a fresh install 7.3, he should take a backup of store before performing an install.

2). One server has 6.x version and doing a fresh install of 7.3 on another server and then comes the store back up, later comes store migration.

iwidmap has to be applied in both cases.

The upgrade path i would prefer would be :
6.5.3 -> 6.7.2 -> 7.2.1 - > 7.3.1
Initially 6.5.3 -> 6.7.2 SP2 patch 2 should be fine for upgrade to 7.3,

No need to go to 7.2.1 and perform another upgrade.

Thanks

But you have to check that 6.5.3 and 6.7.2 installer with service pack should be available in Interwoven support site for download.

Hi GhotiJust a quick question about copying and running the migrate. When you say copy and migrate the store, does it mean including the iw-admin store as well ? Or just the default store? Bz I thought, TS 7.3.1 has more features on iw-admin store than the TS 6.X version and won't it have any conflicts with the old iw-admin store?Can you please explain about the best practice of iw-admin migration as well?Thanks in advanceJohn

I would not run iwmigrate on the admin store. It may not let you anyway.

You *may* want to create a backup store (maybe with iwmigrate) of iwadmin so you can copy things over.

The 6.7.X admin store will only have a few things (that you have customized) that are worth copying over anyway. Just (non-PLC) workflows, templates and components.

That being said a SPAR may be easier.
