When you upgrade the SQL Server to a new version, the system automatically detects and displays the newer version of SQL Server in the CommCell Console as mentioned below:
-
The SQL Server version information is refreshed and displayed in the instance Properties dialog box.
-
The next backup operation detects the new version of SQL Server.
-
The database version of the backup performed by the SQL Server Agent is displayed during the browse operation.
However, if a SQL Server instance where backups have run is upgraded to a newer version and then restored to a time prior to the SQL Server upgrade, the database displays the older version. To convert the database to a newer version, you must perform a full backup of the database after the restore.
