As the Lavastorm Analytics Engine is updated through new feature releases (major X.0 or minor X.Y), some fixes and enhancements may be incompatible with previous versions and may necessitate changes within existing graphs to make them function with the newer release. A utility has been created to assist in the upgrade process from 4.5.x versions of the LAE to 4.6.x or 5.0.x versions; users are encouraged to employ this utility to prevent any compatibility issues. This utility can identify within LAE 4.5-created or 4.6-created graphs any compatibility considerations introduced in a newer version and provide suggestions for any necessary changes.

The scanner utility is attached to this thread as a ZIP archive file. To use the compatibility scanner, simply download and extract the archive file and follow the instructions provided in the contained document LAEUpgradeCompatibilityScanner.pdf. This archive has been updated as of LAE version 5.0, and now includes two different scanners - one for migrating code from LAE 4.5.x and another for migrating code from LAE 4.6.x.

Please reply to this thread with any questions about the scanner utility.

For LAE 5.1 users, the Compatibility Scanner is now included with your LAE distribution. It can be found in your BRE installation directory here:

[installation directory]\lib\brain\brg\migration\upgrade

Documentation for its use can be found in the LAE documents folder; a copy has been attached to this post.

We are currently looking in to upgrading the RADTI servers at Telstra. Which are on 4.5. We will be upgrading them to 5.1, as the process had already started prior to the release of 6.0. Looking at the compatibility scanner attached in the first post we have the option of running the compatibility scanner from version 4.5 up to 5.0 (not 5.1), and the compatibility scanner packaged with the install has the options of comparing 4.6 (not 4.5) to 5.1.

Both these scanners don't ideally fit our scenario of migrating from 4.5 to 5.1. We are inclined to use the older scanner as this should capture most of the compatibility issues. Just thought I would check to see if there is a more comprehensive scanner available to cover our situation?

Do you have a scanner that will work migrating from 4.54 to 6.0?

Thanks!
