Geodatabase upgrade feedback

[RussellBrennan]

Hi Beta users,

We would like to get some feedback from our Beta users regarding your Geodatabase upgrades.

We are looking to hear about any of the following:
- Problems/errors upgrading
- Usability >>> Was it hard to figure out? How did you figure out what to do?
- Documentation >>> Was there anything that wasn�??t clear in the doc? Was the doc hard to find?
- Suggestions >>> Is there anything that you would like to see improved about the new upgrade experience?

It doesn�??t all have to be problems you have encountered, let us know what you liked as well :).

Please let us know what type of Geodatabase you are upgrading, what was the pre-upgrade release, and if it was ArcSDE what DBMS and platform.

We are working hard to make this release the best yet and your feedback is greatly appreciated.

We upgraded our file geodatabases from 9.3 to 10.0.  Suffice to say, all of our geodatabases which used relationship classes no longer have the relationship classes.  Additionally, all feature classes in their original feature datasets now appear in the geodatabase as stand-alone tables and the feature datasets are empty.  Many of our raster catalogs are no longer functional....

This is not something that we have seen before. Do you have a database that you could attach to this thread that we could take a look at? If so can you look to see if the upgrade log is available for that geodatabase? The upgrade messages are written to a log file, GDBUpgrade<n>.log, which is created in your system TEMP directory.
