So I recently upgraded my test server from 10.1 m040 to 10.2 m020. I started testing stuff and came across something that is not a big deal from the big picture but a little disturbing that it would even happen, unless I've missed something that I need to do.
In 10.1 when I revised an object it would go from revision 2.2 to revision 3.0. In 10.2 when I just tried it, the revision went from 2.2 to 3.1. Is this normal with 10.2? What happened to iteration 0? Is there a preference for this?
Solved! Go to Solution.
It's due to your first iteration, not the Revision Series.
This property has the value 1 OTB; need to change to 0.
wt.series.IntegerSeries.min
I think the series is referenced in your OIR. Let me see if I can find it...
Yeah, whatever custom versioning scheme you were using on 9.1 needs to be loaded into 10.2.

Brian, run this command from a Windchill shell to extract your current series: (change path as necessary)
java wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries E:\PTC\Windchill_10.2\series.xml -read
Then on your 10.2 system, run this command to load it back in:
java wt.series.LoadFileBasedSeries E:\PTC\Windchill_10.2\series.xml -load
It's due to your first iteration, not the Revision Series.
This property has the value 1 OTB; need to change to 0.
wt.series.IntegerSeries.min
Thanks Mike! I wish there was a property migrator...
There isn't a "property migrator" but one can fairly easily take all the properties in site.conf created / modified after install and dump them into site.conf on the target and then just xconfmanager -p. This needs to be a key part of the upgrade process, not explicitly addressed as a "how-to" in the guides.
Note: If you do in fact have a custom Revision (version) series, then all the above applies. Need to be super careful to not overwrite what you intend to upload. The -read execution has to be to a different filename.
If you migrate site.conf from one WC system to another, suggest you check it to insure all additions you made to your site.conf file do not conflict with the new WC system. Any properties you changed that might have server names, heap size values, GC changes, cache value changes, etc, things like this.
