The server version upgrade, an unavoidable step for an evolving software environment
In Domino environments, server version migrations often become necessary when businesses choose to evolve their application platforms.
Cooperteam provides a solution for upgrading Domino servers between R5.x and R7.x or R8.x
Evolve your Domino Application platform with solutions from Cooperteam!
Ensure a transparent migration for your users and guarantee the availability of all your applications.
After an upgrade from one version to another, there exists a significant risk of applications which no longer function under the new version, and which may become apparent either immediately after the migration, or later, when more subtle changes become apparent.
The causes of this loss of functionality can be:
Deprecated code: a function removed in a new release of the OS version,
Changed code: the same function name exists, but the use of arguments has changed
Added code: an earlier piece of custom code bears the same name as a newly released function in the target release of the Domino Operating System.
It is essential to discover all of these code elements before starting the migration, because they are critical, and can even lead to serious loss of functionality.
Guarantee the availability and correct functioning of all your Lotus Notes applications under R7.x and R8.x with solutions from Cooperteam.
A global solution for automating application migrations:
Cooperteam provides a global solution which industrialises code version migrations. This is solution is based on the use of two tools, InfoNSF and Code Analyzer, and the following methodology:
Preparation:
1 - Code Analyzer analyses the Notes code (source and destination)
2 - Code Analyzer addresses the delta between source and target coding.
Audit:
1 - Info NSF audits the code in the application databases
2 - Code Analyzer looks in InfoNSF for the delta detectable in the code
3 - Developers can then analyse les found alerts and make the necessary changes
