Hi
How did u upgrade.. direct 800xA 4.1 to 5.1 or via 5.0 Sp2 steps
You have to do it with two steps..
first step upgarde 800xA 4.1 to 5.0 SP2
Migrate all Graphics to PG2
Then Take 5.0 SP2 back and migrate to 800xA 5.1
Please refer the updare procedure document for more details..
Please ensure the following
"Upgrading from 800xA 4.1 to 800xA 5.1 requires that ABB Industrial IT 800xA
Core 4.0.0-1 SP1 Rollup 5d (December 2006) or later be installed. If ABB
Industrial IT 800xA Core 4.0.0-1 SP1 Rollup 5d (December 2006) or later is not
installed, the backup/restore functionality will fail"
Hope this will help you to resove the issue..
If you still get an error , please write to supportline case
Upgrading from 800xA4.1 to 800xA 5.1 is possible.
Please refer the 5.1 upgrade manual: Appendix A- Warning and Error Messages(there is some better explanation for the error messages found in the config wizard log file).
Please do a consistency and afwsct (structure test) clear all the errors and warnings before making a maintenance backup.
Please refer to Appendix D on 5.1 upgrade manual for more information on consistency check.
Hello,
Please elaborate your system version with rollups & libraries you are using because based on the type of libraries we can decide upgrade paths:
ex:
1. if you are using PCDL then you have upgrade each levels of system version to upgrade each levels of PCDL like xA4.1-xA5.0 Sp2-xA5.1 Revisions/FPs.
You can't upgrade directly to Xa5.1 from xA4.1.
2.If you are using System libraries other than SB2 libraries then you can upgrade directly from xA4.1 to 5.1.
Before taking the 4.1 version back up ensure the following:
1.xA4.1 ru5d or later to be done.
2.DM/PM applications(like autocad, etc) needs Ebinstance so sql engine server should run in the primary aspect server.
3.Always take backup from the PriAS only.
After taking backup ensure you to get new license for the system & you have to use windows 2008 32bit /64 bit according to your machine but always prefer to go with 64bit OS.
Here you ensure same system softwares are installed before start restoring the backup.
