Upgrading a 10.0 separated configuration database
Due to a known issue in the 10.0 release, you must follow these steps before upgrading a separated configuration database from 10.0.
Note: To upgrade from 10.0 to 12.0 releases, you must upgrade to 10.0 SP1 first, then
upgrade from 10.0 SP1 to 12.0. Upgrading directly from 10.0 to 12.0 is not a
supported upgrade path. For more information, see Upgrade paths. Perform the following procedure
before upgrading from 10.0 to 10.0 SP1, if you have a separated configuration
database.
