LAB_PROJECT installation considerations

When you select Upgrade a copy of the existing schema in the Installation wizard, OpenText Application Quality Management tries to copy LAB_PROJECT as well. Below is a more detailed explanation of the actions performed on LAB_PROJECT when upgrading a copy of the existing Site Administration schema:

  1. OpenText Application Quality Management tries to copy LAB_PROJECT to the database server where the original LAB_PROJECT exists.

    If LAB_PROJECT is successfully copied:

    • The new Site Administration schema points to the new LAB_PROJECT.
    • The copied LAB_PROJECT has an empty repository. You need to copy the repository from the source LAB_PROJECT.
    • The copied LAB_PROJECT must be upgraded.
  2. If OpenText Application Quality Management fails to copy LAB_PROJECT to the database server where the original LAB_PROJECT exists, a new empty LAB_PROJECT is created in the database server where the new Site Administration database schema is created.

    To copy the original LAB_PROJECT data to make it usable for the installation:

    • Remove the new LAB_PROJECT.
    • Create a copy of the original LAB_PROJECT database schema and repository:

      • Backup the original LAB_PROJECT database schema.
      • Restore a backup of the original LAB_PROJECT into the new installation database server.
      • Copy the source repository from the original LAB_PROJECT into the new installation repository.

    • Update the dbid.xml file of the new LAB_PROJECT with the new:

      • Installation database server name
      • Connection string
      • Password
      • Repository location
    • Restore the new LAB_PROJECT.
    • Upgrade the new LAB_PROJECT.
