Data Warehouse Migration step 13.5 to 13.6 seems to look for the wrong version.

Preparing to run step 'Migration from 13.5 to 13.6'.
	Required minimum database compatibility level: SQL Server 2008 (100)
	Found database compatibility level: SQL Server 2012 (110)
	Required version: 13.6
	Found version: 13.5
	Skipping Step: Required version not found.

I had to fix it in the "DataWarehouseMigration.xml".

Good find @mfranz. The database migration script zip file available for download on the PLC has now been updated so that you should no longer need to tweak the DataWarehouseMigration.xml file.

@ChrisG I downloaded the database migration scripts today and still see this error.

[ChrisG]

@mfranz - Check that the DataWarehouseMigration.xml file contains the following line, which includes requiredversion="13.5":

<SQL stepname="Migration from 13.5 to 13.6" stepnumber="58" requiredversion="13.5" mindbcompatabilitylevel="100" testobjectowners="true">

The line showed requiredversion="13.6" in the old (unfixed) version:

<SQL stepname="Migration from 13.5 to 13.6" stepnumber="58" requiredversion="13.6" mindbcompatabilitylevel="100" testobjectowners="true">

I downloaded the latest DB migration script zip file yesterday and it definitely contained the update at that point in time.

@ChrisG Any chance there is something old cached somewhere? Is this all comming from Flexera servers or do you use a CDN? I cannot attach pictures here, so I sent you an email.

Hi,
I have downloaded the software today. The checks shows:

...\Normal>more DataWarehouseMigration.xml | find /i "Migration from 13.5 to 13.6"
<SQL stepname="Migration from 13.5 to 13.6" stepnumber="58" requiredversion="13.6" mindbcompatabilitylevel="100" testobjectowners="true">

...\Partitioned>more DataWarehouseMigration.xml | find /i "Migration from 13.5 to 13.6"
<SQL stepname="Migration from 13.5 to 13.6" stepnumber="58" requiredversion="13.6" mindbcompatabilitylevel="100" testobjectowners="true">

So, I except it will work for both.

Hi,

the link for the online help on 'System Settings - Integrations' tab tries to open:
../Help/webhelp/index.html#topics/System_Settings-ServiceNow_Tab.html
and shows: We have a problem. 404: Page not found

Please use:
../Help/webhelp/index.html#topics/System_Settings-Integrations_Tab.html

[ChrisG]

@Tooling42 - thanks for the note. What FlexNet system did you observe this on? (I just checked the online help link when viewing the System Settings Integration tab on FlexNet Cloud and had no problem.)

[Tooling42]

@ChrisG- it's a single-tenant, on-premise, Release: 14.0.0.52
Unfortunately I can't see an icon to add a screenshot.
