This chapter describes how to upgrade the components of your HiPer for Retail deployment.
To upgrade to the latest version of AquaLogic HiPer Workspace for Retail:
Check current hardware and software requirements and make any required upgrades to operating system or database software prior to proceeding with the upgrade. For details, see Installation Prerequisites.
Run the upgrade_1.0_to_1.1.sql database update script to add a UUID column to the HiPer for Retail database to accommodate the new migration functionality. For details, see Upgrading the HiPer for Retail Database.
Run the HiPerUpgrade.bat file to add a UUIDs to existing objects in the HiPer for Retail database to accommodate the new migration functionality. For details, see Running the HiPerUpgrade.bat File.
Upgrading Celequest to 3.7.2.0.326
You must use Celequest 3.7.2.0.326 with HiPer for Retail 1.1. Because HiPer for Retail 1.0 required Celequest 3.7.0.27, you must upgrade. You cannot upgrade a Celequest instance in-place. Instead, you must export from the 3.7.0.27 environment and import into the 3.7.2.0.326 environment by performing the following steps in Celequest:
Export the 3.7.0.27 database, without exporting data.
Uninstall the 3.7.0.27 EAR file from the application server.
Drop the metadata database schema from the metadata database.
Create a new metadata database schema.
Run cqinitmetadata.jar to initialize the new metadata database.
Install the CAS_jboss3.2.x.ear file (located in <BAM_system_home>\jboss-3.2.6\server\default\deploy), and bring up the 3.7.2.0.326 version of Celequest.
Import into the Celequest 3.7.2.0.326 instance the export file from the Celequest 3.7.0.27 instance.

The upgrade scripts are located in the HiPer for Retail install directory (for example, C:\Program Files\plumtree\pthiper\1.1\sql). Run the script appropriate for your database software:
For Microsoft SQL Server, run \sql\mssql\upgrade_1.0_to_1.1.sql.
For Oracle on Windows, run \oracle_nt\upgrade_1.0_to_1.1.sql.
For Oracle on Linux, run \oracle_unix\upgrade_1.0_to_1.1.sql.
Running the HiPerUpgrade.bat File
You must run HiPerUpgrade.bat to add UUIDs for existing objects in the HiPer for Retail database to accommodate the new migration functionality. The .bat file is located in the Automation Service install directory (for example, if you are running Plumtree Corporate Portal 5.0.5, it is located in C:\Program Files\plumtree\ptportal\5.0\scripts; if you are running Plumtree Foundation 6.0 SP1, it is located in C:\Program Files\plumtree\ptportal\6.0\scripts).
