Updating PVCS to new version

MigrationDeletedUser
Hello,

We are currently using Serena PVCS 8.5 version. Due to some restrictions we have to upgrade it to 8.6 version. Is there any way that I can use the same DB after installing the new version.

I installed new version and made a new project and imported old files, everything happened smoothly. But I am unable to see difference between earlier versions of the imported files.

Thanks in Advance

    Hello Aditya,

    VM 8.6 can operate on VM 6.5 project databases without change, so there is no need to create new projects and import files; simply open your existing project databases. If the data was moved to a new system, either change the File Server configuration (Project DB path Revision path) as needed, or use a VM File Server to allow for a smooth transition without having to rebuild project databases. See the second section of KB doc knowledgebase.serena.com/.../index
