Dealing with condition messages
During the upgrade process, you might encounter several types of conditions:
Automatically corrected conditions: These conditions are automatically corrected by the
Upgrade Wizard during the upgrade process. The user is not aware of these conditions.
Minor condition messages: These condition messages are displayed on the screen. Follow the
directions in the message to resolve the issue, then perform the upgrade again. If you are not
sure how to resolve the condition, record the message and contact technical support.
Complex condition messages: These condition messages are displayed on the screen, but no
solution is provided in the text, or the solution might be very complex. These conditions
require advanced troubleshooting by experienced professionals. Record the message and
contact technical support for troubleshooting assistance.
Dealing with log files

the log files.
