Upgrade considerations
If you are upgrading from BMC Remedyforce 20.15.02 (Spring 15) or earlier to version 20.15.03 (Summer 15) or later, consider the following points:
- The Enable IT Asset Management check box is not selected by default. After upgrade, when you enable IT asset management, you can choose to activate all out-of-the-box Rule Based Asset classes and synchronize existing CIs in BMC Remedyforce CMDB.
If you do not activate classes at this stage, you have to manually activate each out-of-the-box Rule Based Asset class. For more information, see Managing-asset-classes. - After upgrade, the class type of the BMC_BusinessService, BMC_Monitor, BMC_Mainframe, and BMC_Printer is automatically updated from CI to CI and Asset.
- Prior to BMC Remedyforce 20.15.03 (Summer 15), the (Deprecated) Use the Microsoft Silverlight CMDB Explorer setting was available on the General Application Settings page (Remedyforce Administration > Application Settings > General Application Settings).
