1.5.2 Network IDIH Compatibility

Upgrading an IDIH site to release 8.6.0.7.0 makes it incompatible for viewing network trace data contained in remote IDIH sites that are running a prior release. The incompatibility is removed once all the Network IDIH systems have been upgraded to release 8.6.0.7.0.

To view network traces for a network of IDIH systems where there is a mix of systems running release 8.6.0.7.0 and systems running a prior release, Enable IDIH 8.x Compatibility procedure must be executed. It prepares the systems running IDIH release 8.6.0.7.0 to support IDIH systems running the prior release. After executing Enable IDIH 8.x Compatibility procedure, network traces should be viewed only from an IDIH system running the prior IDIH release. Viewing a network trace from an IDIH 8.6.0.7.0 results in incomplete visualization because the IDIH 8.6.0.7.0 system fails to retrieve Trace Transaction Records (TTRs) from IDIH systems running the prior IDIH release.

When all IDIH systems have been upgraded to release 8.6.0.7.0, Disable IDIH 8.x Compatibility procedure should be run on each IDIH system where IDIH 8.x Compatibility was enabled, to ensure that no errors occur when viewing network traces.
