DATA CENTER

Overview

(green star) The Document Activity Upgrade console is available from Comala Document Management 6.17+ release to allow Confluence Administrators to

  • complete upgrade checks to validate the existing activity in their instance, and

  • start planning the upgrades prior to the release of Comala Document Management 7.0 (Data Center only)

From Comala Document Management 7.0 the console will enable Confluence Administrators to manage the upgrade of Document Activity to enable the new capabilities.

Document Activity Upgrade console

In Confluence Admin, choose Comala Document Management > Upgrade Activity.

The Document Activity Upgrade console allows you identify the current spaces that use Comala Document Management and to prepare for the upgrade by

  • validating your existing data

  • providing estimates of the time to complete the upgrade

Below the Run Checks button the console displays the pages with activity including

  • a list of the spaces that will need upgrading

  • the total number of pages in each space

  • the total number of pages with workflow activity in each space

  • the current upgrade check status

Run the Document Activity Upgrade checks

To run the upgrade checks

  • select one or more spaces listed in the console

  • choose Run checks

A progress bar will display the upgrade check progress for each selected space.

(green star) Successful validation of the upgrade checks for each space will be displayed in the Status column including the date and time of the check. A duration time for the upgrade of the space is also displayed.

A global administrator can cancel an in-progress upgrade check by clicking on the upgrade check progress bar for each individual space.

This can be done for example, to mitigate any performance impact.

Each upgrade check runs in parallel, you may notice some performance impacts when starting a large number of checks at the same time. We recommend that you consider:

  • scheduling checks for low traffic hours 

  • doing checks in small batches

  • using the Upgrade checks REST API to manage the initiation and reporting on the upgrade checks

Upgrade check errors

The console will display the following warning message if an error has been found in one or more spaces.

Upgrade validation check errors for a space will be displayed in the Status column. This includes

  • date and time of the validation check

  • estimated time duration for any upgrade

  • number of pages in space where errors where validation errors were found

A link to download a Support Package is also added to each space listing where an error has been found.

If a validation check error occurs

  • download the Support Package for each space with a validation error

  • contact Comala Support and include the Support Package as an attachment to this request.

Upgrade checks Rest API

REST API endpoints are provided for customers and partners to manage and run upgrade checks.
