Convert only DDFs from one version of metadata to another version of metadata. The database to which the DDFs belong remains categorized as is. That is, the metadata property for the database, which is stored in a special file named dbnames.cfg, does not change. This action is sometimes referred to as “migrating” the DDFs.

Set the metadata version of a database to V1 metadata or to V2 metadata. The metadata property of a database, which is stored in a special file named dbnames.cfg, changes. The DDFs for the database retain their metadata version.
