Hi,

grouping was changed in 2.1 - now UI will group all DCIs with same group ID (which is just free form text). This solves various issues with setting up grouping in templates and for instance discovery DCIs. Upgrade procedure expected to replace existing mappings with ## followed by ID of root DCI - so they should be grouped as before. To fix that you can just enter matching group identifiers for all DCIs that should be grouped.

Hi,

default templates re-imported from file system on server startup. You can disable this behavior by setting server configuration parameter ImportConfigurationOnStartup to 0.

Yes, console needs at least Java 7. Strange that it starts at all. I'll check that.

Can somebody please run upgrade with -t option and post output? Also, content of failed table before upgrade could be helpful.

Hi,

tdata tables holds table DCI values, so you should check your table DCIs. If you don't use them then everything should be fine.

Hi,

it should be safe. I recommend to backup database before upgrade though nxdbmgr upgrade should handle everything, and if you are using Windows installer, it will be handled by installer.

In 2.1 user admin is an ordinary user which gets it's access from "Admins" group. Login with user "system" (it is superuser that always has full access) and check that "Admins" group has full permissions (or give explicit permissions directly to user "admin").

Hi,

seems that global permissions was not updated during upgrade. In 2.1 we introduce alarm categories, and new global access right "access to all alarm categories" which should be enabled for all users to keep behavior compatible with 2.0. Make sure your user/group has this access right set.

Hi,

Using same version as server will always work. Other versions may or may not work - protocol version may stay the same between product versions. Usually if you got this error that means that your client is too old and you just upgrade to version matching your server version.

HI,

check that your user/group has global permission "access all alarm categories".

Hi,

tables are cleaned by internal housekeeper process according to configured retention times. All tdata_* tables contains data for table DCI. You can reduce their size by reducing retention times on table DCis. Also, version 2.1 uses different format for table data storage, more efficient in terms of consumed space (but less efficient for random access).
