Thanks, Roger, "CMDB2.0.1_InstallationConfigurationGuide.pdf" says, "You cannot upgrade directly from BMC Atrium CMDB 1.0 or 1.1 to version 2.0.1. If you have version 1.0 or 1.1, you must upgrade to version 1.1 patch 002 and then upgrade that to version 2.0.1." (p 15).
It reminds me of the old saying that "No matter what you have to do you always have to do something else first." Rick, you are right, they at least do give you instructions on how to upgrade, so at least I don't have to export and re-import the data.
