Hello, it's more secure to do upgrades one by one. If your software was updated and one of your database upgrades failed, it may be hard to get it working again. You can separate a databases in this way:
1. install same database kernel version (7.6.00.36) in a different location (e.g. /opt/sdb/<dbname>): ./SDBINST -package "Database Kernel" -depend /opt/sdb/<dbname> 2. shutdown database: dbmcli -d <dbname> -u <user,pw> db_offline 3. register database with new path: dbmcli -d <dbname> -u <user,pw> db_reg ROOT /opt/sdb/<dbname> In future releases of MaxDB this will be done by upgrade tool automatically.
