EUL Upgrade dialog

This dialog informs you that you must upgrade the EUL tables before you can use the current version of Discoverer Administrator.

To continue running queries and reports after upgrading the EUL tables, existing users must install the equivalent version of Discoverer Plus, Discoverer Desktop or Discoverer Viewer.

We recommend that you export the EUL tables before starting the upgrade process.

Discoverer suggests two ways to proceed:

  • Manually create a new EUL

    When you upgrade from a version 9.0.2, 9.0.4, or 9.0.4.1 EUL this option is recommended. Previous versions of Discoverer Plus, Discoverer Viewer and Discoverer Desktop will still be able to access the old EUL.

    When you upgrade from a version 4.1 EUL this option is not essential because previous versions of Discoverer Plus, Discoverer Viewer and Discoverer Desktop will still be able to access the old EUL.

  • Automatically upgrade the existing EUL

    When you upgrade from a version 4.1 EUL this option is recommended because previous versions of Discoverer Plus, Discoverer Viewer and Discoverer Desktop will still be able to access the old EUL.

    Warning: Do not use this option when you upgrade from a version 9.0.2, 9.0.4 or 9.0.4.1 EUL until you have carried out an export of the EUL tables. If you don't export the 9.0.2, 9.0.4 or 9.0.4.1 EUL tables before carrying out the upgrade process, you might lose your version 9.0.2, 9.0.4 or 9.0.4.1 EUL. If you upgrade the from a version 9.0.2, 9.0.4 or 9.0.4.1 EUL, all users must upgrade to the latest versions of Discoverer Plus, Viewer and Desktop.
