- The PostgreSQL database format will be upgraded. It is strongly recommended to create a backup of the database prior to running the 2.9 upgrade. Once the database has been upgraded, it is not possible to revert back to a previous version
- The index will be rebuilt after the upgrade has finished. The index rebuild can potentially take a while, and users may not be able to search or have incomplete search results until the rebuild completes. Documents will not be re-fetched during this process
- All customers will be moved from the "ViaWorksV2" Solr core to the “ViaWorksCloud” Solr collection during the upgrade process. The “ViaWorksV2” core from versions 2.7 SR5 and older is no longer supported
- During the upgrade, the solrconfig_overrides.xml and schema_overrides.xml files will be reset. Before upgrading, make note of the customization added to these files so they can be re-applied after the upgrade is complete. Note: the Solr schema has changed and overrides will need to be updated to support the changes.
- ViaWorks 2.9 requires .NET framework v. 4.7.2 to be installed.
