Except where noted in the text, the information in this chapter applies to upgrade and cumulative update customers only. You can run any of the merges in two ways:

• Proof mode creates merge reports, but does not update control tables. Use proof mode to examine the changes that are reported without updating your tables.

• Update mode creates merge reports and updates items in the control tables.

Tip:

Check each merge as it finishes to make sure it completed successfully. Also, save your logs in case you have to troubleshoot problems.
