Upgrading
This section provides information about upgrading the BMC ProactiveNet Report Engine version 8.6.xx, 9.0, 9.0.20, and 9.0.22 to version 9.5.01.
The procedures provided herein ensure the safe and successful transfer of configuration settings and customizations from the earlier version to the new version.
When you upgrade to BMC ProactiveNet Report Engine version 9.5.01, you have an option to import the latest BMC ProactiveNet Performance Management universe and reports into the SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise automatically. It eliminates the manual process of importing the universe into SAP BusinessObjects Enterprise using the Import Wizard. BMC recommends that you import the universe when you upgrade to BMC ProactiveNet Report Engine version 9.5.01.
Before upgrading, you must first back up your existing universe and other folders. After upgrading the Report Engine, you must configure the Oracle client and SAP BusinessObjects as describe in Configuring-BMC-Proactivenet-Reporting-Engine-Oracle-database-connection-with-SAP-BusinessObjects-Enterprise.
