Strategy ONE

3. History List Database Repository

If you are using a database-based History List, when upgrading to MicroStrategy ONE you must upgrade the History List database tables. MicroStrategy recommends using the Configuration Wizard to upgrade the History List repository.

To Upgrade the History List Repository

  1. In Windows, go to Start > All Programs > Strategy Tools > Configuration Wizard. The Configuration Wizard opens.
  2. Select Upgrade existing environment to MicroStrategy Secure Enterprise and click Next.
  3. Select History List Repositories and click Next. .
  4. Select the DSN for the History List database, and specify the login information.

  5. To upgrade existing History List messages to the current format, select the Copy History List content check box.

    If this check box is cleared, existing History List messages are not upgraded. The new tables required to support History List messages are still created.

  6. If you select to upgrade your existing History List messages, you can also select the Compress data check box to compress all existing History List messages. This compression can improve the performance of using History List messages. However, the compression of your History List messages can require significant system resources during the upgrade.

    To avoid the overhead of compressing your existing History List messages, clear the Compress data check box. Existing History List messages are not modified, but any newly created History List messages are created with the new compressed format.
