Perform these post-upgrade steps:
If you saved a modified copy of the previous ptcli configuration file as described in Saving the previous installation, merge it at this time. The ptcli file is:
Program Files\IBM\Rational\Synergy\7.2x\etc\ptcli.cfg
After the upgrade process, disable the services on the server to make the previous release unusable.
To disable 7.0, 7.1, 7.1a, 7.2 or later services:
The string “ééééééééééééééééééééééééééééééééééééé” (37 e-acute Latin-1 characters) takes up 37 bytes in the CP1252 encoding used in Rational Synergy 7.0 and 7.1. The same string takes up 74 bytes in the UTF-8 encoding used in Rational Synergy 7.2 or later. As a result, a query for objects with some attribute equal to this value succeeds in 7.0 and 7.1, but fails in 7.2.
If there is a filter on the base model attribute 'system_filename_filters' as below:
*.XYZ
The above filter should be converted using mapping rules syntax as below and the converted rule has to be updated on the base model attribute 'mapping_rules':
WHEN %name =~ '.*\\.XYZ' IGNORE
