Upgrading IBM Control Center from a previous version

You can upgrade IBM® Control Center from a previous version to V6.1 or later.

Important: If you have IBM Control Center V5.2, V5.3, or V5.4, you must first upgrade to V5.4.2.1 (latest maintenance). You can then upgrade IBM Control Center to V6.1. In V5.4 and earlier, rules, SLCs, actions, servers, and other objects are stored in the XML files on the operating system. In V6.1, these files are migrated to the databases. Tell your database administrator that the database might drastically increase in size, depending on the number of servers, user-written rules, SLCs, actions, and other objects.
