upgradefe Command—Install and Upgrade Tool Catalog Definitions
The upgradefe command installs and upgrades the catalogs required by Ingres tools. You must execute the upgradefe command after installing a new version of any tool, if the new version requires changes to the catalog definitions.
The upgradefe command has the following format:
upgradefe dbname |vnode::dbname[/server_class] {product} [-b] [-vversion] [-s]
[-c] [-uusername]
dbname
Specifies the name of the database, and if required, the
vnode and
server_class, as described in
Standard Flags and Parameters (see page
Standard Flags and Parameters).
product
Specifies the Ingres tool products for which you want to upgrade the database. Allowable product names are ingres, ingres/dbd, vision, and windows_4gl, as described in
Standard Flags and Parameters (see page
Standard Flags and Parameters). If you omit this parameter, all user interfaces for the database are processed.
-b
Installs the modules required to support the product ingres. (Specifying the -b flag is equivalent to specifying the product ingres.)
-vversion
Specifies the version number of the product to be installed; if the -v flag is not specified, the highest known version is installed.
-s
Suppresses messages from upgradefe.
-c
Allows multiple concurrent connections to iidbdb without taking exclusive locks.
-uusername
Specifies the effective user for the session, as described in
Standard Flags and Parameters (see page
Standard Flags and Parameters). If you want to upgrade a database you do not own, you must use the -u flag to specify the user name of the DBA.
