Migration

This list shows migration paths and additional considerations:

 

Data Hub Backend

Version 12.0 -> 12.5
NOT SUPPORTED.
Please contact Raynet for assistance.
 

Version 12.1 -> 12.5
SUPPORTED
 

Version 12.2 -> 12.5
SUPPORTED
 

Version 12.3 -> 12.5
SUPPORTED

 

Version 12.4 -> 12.5
SUPPORTED

 
The migration of database is supported out-of-the-box. It is recommended to uninstall the previous version of the product (the database will stay intact) and install it again with the new installer. The database will be migrated automatically during the installation, or it can be also upgraded manually (see Manual database update for more information).
 
After the migration, the database will be not backward-compatible, which means that any previous instance of RayVentory Data Hub will be unable to use the same database.

Note:

During the upgrade, IIS settings will be reset to default ones. Make sure to provide the same parameters during the upgrade.

 

Data Migration

Reports and dashboard are not migrated automatically, and you can continue to use them. However, new version of Data Hub often come with new features and improvements, which are only available in the newer version of their respective templates. We recommend to create a copy of existing reports (using the backup functionality, available in RayVentory Data Hub 12.3), and then to import new reports and dashboards from the library.

 

Data Hub Agent (formerly Data Collector up to 12.1)

It is recommended to use the same product version of Data Hub and Data Hub Agent. Failing to use matching version can lead to difficulties configuring and running your tasks. The agent must be updated on every machine that connects to the RayVentory Data Hub. You can check the version of the agent on the Agents page.

 

For more information about updating the Data Hub Agent, refer to the Data Hub Agent / Migration chapter.
