How You Perform the Upgrade
Note: Back up all data (databases and applications) before starting.
The overall strategy for upgrading is as follows:
1. Make a copy of your existing OpenROAD applications that you will want to use with OpenROAD 11.2.
2. Install the new version of OpenROAD in the appropriate environment.
3. Use the OpenROAD 11.2 tools to compile and image the new database that contains the applications.
4. Use the new images to test your application.
The following chapters detail how to create a new OpenROAD environment and how to upgrade from specific versions of OpenROAD.
