FOXMAN‑UN Upgrade with DB Migration
This scenario is applicable to any network size. It is particularly recommended for larger networks where the restoration of the NE configurations from the network, the recreation of foreign objects, sections and maps as well as redefining FOXMAN‑UN security amount to a lot of work or any of ENP, DIRAC or ALS are in use.
The procedure consists of two steps. The existing FOXMAN‑UN database is first migrated to make it compatible with the new FOXMAN‑UN release, and then it is imported into the newly installed FOXMAN‑UN. Depending on the old release, some of the new features in the new release require manual additions to the migrated database.
Please note:
This type of upgrade procedure should only be used for a stable network.
