Compatibility of Optim Database Administrator V2.2.3 with earlier releases

Optim™ Database Administrator V2.2.3 is compatible with earlier releases of Optim Database Administrator with a few minor exceptions.

Projects and change management scripts from earlier releases

Only data design projects and change commands scripts that were created in Optim Database Administrator V2.2.2.1 or later releases are compatible with Optim Database Administrator V2.2.3. Optim Database Administrator V2.2.3 converts the files in the project to the new format that is used. Any errors that occur during conversion are displayed. You are prompted to continue with or cancel the conversion. If you choose to continue the conversion, the objects that are causing the problems are ignored and only the valid objects are retained.

Workspaces from earlier releases

Optim Database Administrator V2.2.3 supports workspaces that were created in earlier releases of Optim Database Administrator. However, the first time that you use a workspace that was created in an earlier release, the Administration Explorer does not open. To open the Administration Explorer, on the main menu, click Window > Show View > Administration Explorer. If you do not see Administration Explorer in the list, click Other, expand Data, select Administration Explorer, and click OK.

The Administration Explorer opens. When you use this workspace again, the Administration Explorer will be displayed.

Backward compatibility for change management scripts

Change management scripts that are created or edited in the Change Management Script Editor in Optim Database Administrator V2.2.3 are not compatible with earlier releases of Optim Database Administrator.
