Hi Cedric,
Based on the ALM build number (11.52.341.0) I can see that you are upgrading to ALM11.52 and not to ALM11. Therefore I would suggest you to follow the upgrade process described in this KB article:
http://support.openview.hp.com/selfsolve/document/KM00474177
Basically, the steps that you have posted are correct, but you need to pay attention to the following:
- you need to restore the QC10 DB backup on the DB of the empty project that you have created.
- after the DB is restored you should modify the 'td' ownership by running these SQL queries:
- EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Report'
This unlinks the "td" user. - EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'td', 'td';
This links the "td" user of the TestDirector database to the same ID as the"td" user of the Microsoft SQL Server database.
- when you paste the QC10 repository in the empty project's folder, you should delete the ProjRep flder that has been created during the creation of the empty project. The only file that should be left in the folder should be the dbid.xml file of the newly created project (the QC10 dbid.xml file should not be copied to this folder).
- the PR_SMART_REPOSITORY_ENABLED parameter in the dbid.xml file should be changed from 'Y' to 'N' if upgrading from QC10.0 to ALM11.5x.
- The empty project should be removed from SA before you try to restore the dbid.xml file. Please note that it should be removed, not deleted!
- If you still face any errors during the restore of the modified dbid.xml, it would be great if you could set the SA files to Debug and reproduce the issue. Then you should check the log files for the exact reason of the failure...you can also post the logs so we could assist you further.
Hope this informaiton helps!
Thanks,
Hristo
