Creating new local replicas of the upgraded course databases
The upgrade process changes the replica ID of the course databases.
Therefore, you should make sure that any students or instructors who had
been using local replicas of the old course databases create new replicas of
the upgraded course databases.
For more information about replicating course databases, see LearningSpace
Student Help. For more detailed information, see Notes Help.
Instructing students to recover their private documents
If you are upgrading a course that is currently active, you have to assist
students in recovering their private documents. This is why it is
recommended that you upgrade only inactive courses.
The upgrading procedure copies all course documents except those the student
marked “Private to myself.” Therefore, you should tell students and instructors
to recover their private documents by following the procedure described here.
Note
The private documents of the person who performed the upgrade
procedure are copied to the upgraded CourseRoom database automatically.
All others must copy their private documents to the upgraded CourseRoom
manually.
1. Add the archived copy of the CourseRoom to your Notes workspace.
Choose File - Database - Open.
You’ll have to supply students and instructors with the correct path to
the archived database. The path should be lspace\larchive\subdir where
subdir is the subdirectory where the course had been stored before
upgrading. They enter this in the Open Database dialog box in the
filename field to select the archived database, and press Add Icon, and
then press Done.
2. Open the old CourseRoom database.
