How long should an update (nav 2009R2 to 2015) take
Poltergeist
Member Posts: 200
I'm trying (for the first time) to upgrade a database from NAV2009R2 to NAV2015 (via NAV2013), using http://blogs.msdn.com/cfs-filesystemfil ... V-2015.pdf. All steps (up to 25) work fine. If I take out one company (create a fbk from one company, restore in an empty database, do the upgrade) everything works smoothly. However, When trying a somewhat larger database (Well, It's just 9 GB) the dataupgrade just takes forever. Up until now, I haven't had the patience to wait (after keeping it running for 24 hours).
First of all, I cannot run it parallel. It complains about the permission table being locked by another user. If I run it serial, the checkpreconditions are run (fast), but then it starts codeunit 104055, function startupgrade for the first company. which is also the company with the most data. I can see the developmentclient running at 25% (it's a quadcore processor, so that makes sense), but other then that: nothing seems to happen.
How long should it take for such a small database to be upgraded?

The dimension rebuild uses SQL. This should not be a problem area for a database of this size.
One area I have run into on older upgrades is a process that renames contents of the primary key. Mass renaming of any larger table is a performance killer, and the only way around it, if it is necessary, is to it in SQL.
