Let me try this again. The dba took a copy of our 7.1 SQL2000 db and restored it to a SQL2008 server thus leaving us with our ARS 7.1 db in a SQL 2008 format. We then ran the 7.6.04 SP2 installers with the results already mentioned. I hope this makes more sense.

We are trying to upgrade from 7.1 patch 4 to 7.6.04 SP2. We have all new hardware. The dbas have taken a copy of the SQL 2k 7.1 db and restored to SQL 2008 then upgrading to SQL 2008. The ARS install recognizes tht the db is there but does not offer eth Upgrade/Overwrite/Server Group screen. We even tried upgrading to 7.5 first but ran into the same scenario. Not sure what to do other than creating a new db and migrating everything over.

I think at least a round or two of TESTERS might help a little... the midtier needs to be down when you do it.. It was up in my case had to use a different port:: I am just testing a couple of theories.. about importing and upgrading of the SRM stuff.. Cause BMC does not have a real clear path.. and I have found many issues... with the older SRM 7.6 and trying to export and import into a 7.6.04 sp1 or 2 ... won't work.. exports get record dumps and sometimes I am getting 2, 3, 4, 5,6, even 7 duplicates in the dumps..

Of course, your problem may have nothing to do with that, since the 7.6.x installers have their own collection of defects and misbehaviors, most of them already mentioned in this thread.
