| 3 | If you are upgrading from one of the 1.4.7 pre-releases, be aware that |
| 4 | there was a serious bug in those versions that could cause Ubik database |
| 5 | entries to be lost if all database servers were restarted at the same |
| 6 | time. You should restart each database server in turn, one at a time, |
| 7 | to pick up the new 1.4.7 binaries before the next nightly restart. |
| 8 | |
| 9 | Only 1.4.7 pre-releases were affected by this problem. If you are |
| 10 | upgrading from an older version, you should not have to take special |
| 11 | precautions. |
| 12 | |
| 13 | You may also want to turn off any general restart for your servers with: |
| 14 | |
| 15 | bos setrestart -server <server> -time never -general |
| 16 | |
| 17 | This was an old defense against memory leaks and is no longer needed. |
