Properties of Upgrade Kit Items and Upgrade Kit Item Parameters

Each upgrade kit item defines an action in an upgrade kit and requires certain parameters to operate. For example, a file copy action needs the file to copy and the destination for the copy. The following procedure describes how to view and interpret information that applies to items and item parameters within a selected upgrade kit.
Note: It is recommended that you do not add, update, or delete any records in the Upgrade Kit Items list and Upgrade Kit Item Parameters list in the Upgrade Kit Items view. The records in these lists are created automatically, and changing them in any way can damage the selected upgrade kit.
