Backing up the databases

Before you upgrade, you should back up both the Data Warehouse and OnCommand Insight databases. Upgrading requires a backup of the Data Warehouse database so that you can restore the database later in the upgrade process. The in-place upgrade for Insight backs up the database; however, you should back up the database before the upgrade as a best practice.

Note

You must back up the vault prior to upgrading OnCommand Insight.

See the SecurityAdmin Tool instructions for more information.

To avoid misreporting data, you should back up the Data Warehouse database prior to backing up the Insight database. Additionally, if you have a test environment, it is recommended that you ensure you can restore the backup before you continue with the upgrade.
