Additional Information Required for Apply Additive Schema Changes Mode

You can optionally run the Database Configuration Utilities in Apply Additive Schema Changes mode. Additive Schema Changes generates an SQL script, schema.additive.sql. The script contains production upgrep schema changes that can be performed while the database is online. This reduces the amount of time required for the upgrep when the database is offline.

The additional information shown in the following table is required when you run the Database Configuration Utilities in Apply Additive Schema Changes mode.

Field Name	Required Information
Schema File	The absolute path to the `schema.ddl` file. If a path is displayed, then verify that `schema.ddl` is located in this directory.
Output Directory	The absolute path to the directory where `schema.additive.sq`l will be placed after the Upgrade Wizard generates it. The Upgrade Wizard also places the log file in this directory.
