After you upgrade Rational® Focal Point™,
you can test the database by using the Verify Database option.
Note: You must be a Global administrator to verify the database.
To run the verifier at workspace level, you must be added to the workspace.
You can check for inconsistencies in the database both globally
and at the workspace level.
- Global level:
- Check for redundant links in the link table.
- Check for redundant mail logs entries, which might be associated
with the ID of a user who is not in the database.
- Workspace level:
- Check for missing rows in the attribute table in the workspace.
In order for views to work properly, each attribute must have a row
in the attribute table.
- Check for deleted attributes in rows in the workspace. After attributes
are deleted, the history table might still contain rows for those
attributes because of missing keys or deletion errors.
- Check for deleted baselines and incorrectly flagged links in the
workspace. When links from baselines are incorrectly flagged or references
to deleted baselines are not removed from the link table, performance
problems might occur.
