Overview of upgrading the database environment
If you are upgrading to the InForm 6.3.1.1 release from an environment that uses the Oracle 11g database software, you must upgrade to the Oracle 12c database software.
- For information on which versions of the Oracle database software are supported, see the System Requirements.
- For information on installing the Oracle database software, see your Oracle database documentation.
- For information on the database parameter settings, and guidance on installing and configuring the Oracle database software for the InForm environment, see the Installation Guide.
Note: Oracle does not support an in-place upgrade from the Oracle 11g database to the Oracle 12c database software. You must export studies from your existing environment and import them into the upgraded database environment, and then proceed with the rest of the upgrade.
