Pre-upgrade tasks for migrating the SFDB repository database
Prev	Performing a full upgrade of SF Oracle RAC using the product installer	Next

If you plan to continue using Database Storage Checkpoints or SmartTier for Oracle policies you created with a 5.0x or earlier version of Storage Foundation for Oracle RAC, you must migrate the SFDB repository database to 6.0.1.

Note:

The Sfua_Base repository resource group will be removed from the main.cf file. It is not required as a separate service group for SF Oracle RAC 6.0.1.

Perform the following before upgrading SF Oracle RAC.

To prepare to migrate the repository database

Resynchronize all existing snapshots before upgrading. As Oracle user, enter:
```
$ /opt/VRTS/bin/dbed_vmsnap -S $ORACLE_SID \
-f SNAPPLAN -o resync
```
Warning:

The Database Flashsnap clone database will not be able to be carried over after upgrading. You must create a new Database Flashsnap clone database after upgrading to 6.0.1.
