Note that the alter mysql engine step must run while upgrading ELAP 10.x to 11.x. After upgrading from 11.x to 11.y, the engine will already be updated to InnoDB. Verify the mysql engine using the below command before running the alter_Table_Elap_11.0.pl
Example: The example below contains a snapshot of only one table in EuiDB. The actual output will show all the tables present in EuiDB. ![]() If the command output shows the engine as InnoDB, we don't need to run the alter_table_Elap_11.0.pl. If the engine is already InnoDB, then skip steps 10, 11, 12 and then restart Elap application. If the engine is MyISAM, proceed with the next steps in this procedure. |
