regenerate DB and clonedb equivalent for migration?

    Hi Marcel,


    I'm going to upgrade Conquest running under Linux from 1.4.14 (on 32bit; old server) to 1.4.16 (64bit) on a new server.


    For the migration I have one question: Can I simply run clonedb (under 1.4.16) to migrate the DICOM tables under 1.4.14 to 1.4.16 (I saw that the table structure changed) or do I have to regenerate the new DB from a DICOM file level in order to create it properly (takes obviously much longer)?


    Thanks for your feedback.


    Kind regards
    Frank

    Hi Frank,


    clonedb should work, but you may have to use an SQL console to properly use DEVICE in dicomimages to e.g., MAG0. I would do a trial migration first. Also check that you need the 1.4.16 database structure, you may just keep the original database (look at dicom.sql what changed) which works as long as you also keep dicom.sql.
