Before Installing a New Version of the Denodo Platform¶

Before installing the Denodo Platform 6.0, follow these steps:

• If you are using the cache engine of Denodo, create a new schema on the database used to store the cached data. You can use the same database to store cached data from Denodo 6.0 and from earlier versions simultaneously. However, it is very important that it is stored on different schemas. Otherwise, the data will be mixed up.

Before installing the Denodo Platform 6.0, consider the following:

1. If you are going to install the Denodo Platform 6.0 in the same host where a previous Denodo installation is running, choose one of these options:

   1. Use only one of the Denodo Platforms at the same time. E.g., you can start either Virtual DataPort version 6.0 or a previous version, but not both at the same time.

   2. Or, configure the new installation to use different ports to listen to incoming connections.
