This will upgrade the database structure but, as pointed out, it won't import the updated definitions for the core forms - User, Group and so on.
If you really don't want to run the installer on one of the new production machines I'd suggest you use a temporary system. Run the installer and let it perform the database upgrade and then just discard it afterwards.

You need a binary file called arupsyb. It's located in arsystem/solaris/arsystem.tar To upgrade the database structure you need to run 2 commands . /<your ars7.1 dir>/bin/arsystem this will set all the necessary env-vars. arupsyb -c $ARCONFIGDIR/ar.conf -d this will do the database upgrade. Now you should be able to start your 7.1 AR-Server. The only problem is, that you must manually import some def-Files that would normaly be imported by the install script.

November 2008 17:53 An: [email protected] Betreff: Server Install ** ARS 7.1p3 Solaris/Sybase I have a server that has been upgraded to 7.1. Our upgrade will be done by taking a copy of the existing production database and copying it to a new database host. We will then need to upgrade that database to 7.1. We have two new hosts that already have 7.1 installed with all of the config files set correctly. Is there a way to run the server install script so that all it does is upgrade the existing database but does not touch the currently installed files? __Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" html___ __Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are" html___ _______________________________________________________________________________ UNSUBSCRIBE or access ARSlist Archives at www.arslist.org Platinum Sponsor: www.rmsportal.com ARSlist: "Where the Answers Are"
