3.1.1 Release Notes

[dan]

3.1.1 is a maintance release for 3.1. If you have not upgraded to any 3.1 Vault version, see http://support.sourcegear.com/viewtopic.php?t=4294 for more information.

The following changes are included in 3.1.1

Server Only
· Installs and runs with June CTP of SQL 2005
· Performance improved on checkout/checkin on large repositories and security is turned on.
· History now shows correct rows on a subfolder when default security rights are 0.
· Addressed issues with SQL deadlocks when adding and retrieving labels.
· Large, complex history queries that were slower in 3.1.0 than previous releases have now been sped up.




<b>Client/Server Version Compatibility</b>
It is always recommended that your client and server versions match exactly (e.g., a 3.0.1 client should be connecting to a 3.0.1 server). 3.1.x clients are able to communicate with any 3.0.x or 3.1.x server, but specific bug fixes will not work correctly if they required both client and server changes. 3.1.x clients and servers are not compatible with 1.x or 2.x clients and servers.


<b>Upgrading From Previous Versions</b>
It is recommended that you backup your Vault database prior to an upgrade. This can be done from either the Vault Admin tool, or the SQL Enterprise Manager tool.

To upgrade from a previous installation of Vault, simply invoke the new installer, and choose the same options that were selected when Vault was previously installed. Program files and configuration settings will be automatically updated to reflect the upgrade. Note that the server installation will not delete your database unless you explicitly tell it to.

You may also safely uninstall Vault first, and then install the upgrade. As with installation, an uninstall will not delete your database unless you explicitly tell it to.

<b>Important</b>: If you are upgrading from a pre 3.1 version of Vault, the server installation will take longer than normal because the database needs to be converted to a new format.

Also, the client install will upgrade client cache files to a new format if you are currently on a pre 3.1 release. This will not affect upgrade times, but also will not allow you to revert back to a pre 3.1 client without losing client state information.
