Author CMS 2002 SP1a database upgrading

Hi,

Our development CMS database ( originally SP1) was upgraded with SP1a when I
tried to connect it from a sp1a installed machine (DCA).
Is it possible to revert upgrading of database ? i.e. go back to SP1 ?

Cheers,
Smita

SP1a to SP1 upgrade is not reversible.

You will have to do a physical restore of any database backups that you
might have hopefully taken in advance.

Regards,
Pandurang

Hi Smita,

Pandurang is correct.
You can't downgrade a database.

Cheers,
Stefan

The SDO imports usually warn the user saying that there needs to be a backup
of the database.

Probably that's a good thing to have when SPs are done as well.
