Interact upgrade tools

You must upgrade the runtime environment and the design time environment when you upgrade Interact. Run the Interact upgrade tools to upgrade system tables, contact and response history tables, and Interact user profile tables.

Interact provides five upgrade tools, one for upgrading the design time environment (aciUpgradeTool) and four for upgrading the runtime environment (aciUpgradeTool_crhtab, aciUpgradeTool_lrntab, aciUpgradeTool_runtab, and aciUpgradeTool_usrtab). The upgrade scripts are delivered with the new version of Interact, and are available after you run the HCL® Marketing Software suite installer in clean or upgrade mode for both the runtime environment and the design time environment.

You can upgrade the Interact design time environment configuration properties when you upgrade the Campaign configuration properties.

Use the following table to understand the purpose of the Interact upgrade tools:
