Apply iFix to CLM 5.0.2 before migration


Will Girard (1516) | asked Aug 10 '16, 7:23 a.m.
Hello

i'm trying to upgrade our CLM Solution from 4.0.6 to 5.0.2. Before starting the upgrade i'd like to apply the newes iFix of Version 5.0.2 (ATM iFix016).

So i installed 5.0.2 on the machine, copied the zip to the patch folder. Next step according to the readme.txt of the iFix is starting the server. Do i really have to do this or can i just run the repotools -clean command and then start the migration scripts?

thank you in advance.
Willi

In my test, I don't see the difference between server is on or off when running repotools -clean command. I guess starting the server is not a must requirement. I am interested in knowing the confirmation if anyone can.

You don't have to start the "fresh" server with a deployed ifix ; you can do the migrations then start the server process.  I've done in 4 > 5 and 5 > 6 upgrades w/o issue.
