Run the Informatica Upgrade Advisor

Before you perform an upgrade, run the Informatica Upgrade Advisor to validate the services and check for obsolete services, supported database, and supported operating system in the domain.

If you do not change the node configuration, you can run the Informatica Upgrade Advisor before you upgrade. If you run Informatica Upgrade Advisor before you migrate to a node with a different configuration, you might notice some database or node configuration failures that you can ignore.

Before you upgrade with changes to the domain configuration repository database, run i10Pi from the Informatica installer to review the installation support for the new database type, database version, operating system, or machine. For more information about the i10Pi configuration, see the

Informatica Installation Guide
