Complete the upgrade prerequisites before you upgrade the Data Vault components.
Before you upgrade a Data Vault component, complete the following tasks:
If you plan to upgrade on a Microsoft Windows machine, verify that you have Administrator privileges.
Verify the amount of free disk space. The free disk space must be 10 times the size of the
meta.n00
file. Otherwise, the upgrade will fail.
Complete all Data Vault Loader jobs to ensure that all data are loaded to the Data Vault before you start the upgrade process.
Stop the ILM application server and end all ILM services.
Stop the Data Vault components. If you run Data Vault as a Microsoft Windows service, stop the service.
Verify that the user account you use to run the installer has read and write privileges to the directory of the Data Vault component that you plan to upgrade. The installer makes a backup copy of the directory before it starts the upgrade process. If you do not have read and write privileges to the directory, the upgrade can fail.
Copy the Data Vault installer files to the machine that hosts the Data Vault component that you plan to upgrade.
