Phases of an Documentum Upgrade

� Documentum upgrade is best accomplished using the following phased approach

–  Planning phase –  Development phase –  Testing phase –  Production phase


Development Environment Practices 1.  Install the new version of products

2.  Gain familiarity with new features and performance aspects of the release

3.  Determine steps needed to migrate customizations

4.  Test customizations in the new test installation

5.  Ensure that the right hardware resources are available


Practicing the Upgrade � Practice with Test / Development Environment � Practice with a cloned system to avoid the

unexpected –  Test applications and customizations against realistic data –  Timing information –  Errors due to consistency issues –  Familiarity with the upgrade procedure for backups,

installations, upgrades and restores


Repository Consistency Checker �  Examines Docbase metadata for inconsistencies

–  Users & Groups - Workflow –  ACLs - Types –  Sysobjects - Data Dictionary –  Folders and Cabinets - Lifecycle –  Documents & Content Objects

�  Issues “Warning” for Referential Integrity type problems

�  Issues “Error” for corruptions

�  Contact Technical Support/Powerlink for resolutions


Testing the Upgrade �  Include test cases to validate the following

–  Jobs –  Basic Administration –  Workflows –  Method Server –  UCF content operations –  ACS –  BOCS –  SBOs download and compatibility –  Fulltext indexing and search –  Custom functionality

�  Involve users in testing as early as possible


Testing Phase

� During the testing phase, you will –  Test that the various products and hardware and software

infrastructure work as a system –  Engage some of the stakeholders to use the system as they

normally would in production –  Conduct targeted testing and benchmarks for any known

risk areas –  Test and document the upgrade process


Production Phase

� Tweak the hardware environment based on what was learned through testing

� Ensuring that all automatic tasks are complete before upgrading

� Perform the production system upgrade

� Test the upgraded production system


Next Steps �  Visit the EMC Community Network

–  Learn more about how EMC customers are using the latest releases
