                    If you want to add multiple Enterprise Servers, make sure that the Pristine pathcode and the Target pathcode coexist                     on a single Enterprise Server. The Table Conversions that run on the Enterprise Server as part of the Simplified                                 Upgrade access both the Pristine and the Target pathcode specs for the conversion process.

Consider a scenario where you have multiple Enterprise Servers provisioned using One-Click Provisioning. The Pristine pathcode exists on Server 1 and the Target pathcode (for the upgrade) exists on Server 2. Use the following manual procedure to prepare Server 2 for the upgrade:

  1. Ensure that your upgrade plan specifies that the Table Conversions are set to run on Server 2. The Server 2 has the Target pathcode for upgrade.
  2. Copy the Pristine pathcode folder (../PS920) including the spec folder with the spec.ini file from Server 1, and add it to the Server 2 folder, and ensure that the PS920 and DV920 folders are located in the same directory.
