Upgrading from Infranet Release 6.5 to Portal 7.3
Hi Experts,
One of our customer is upgrading their system from BRM 6.5 to BRM 7.3 using OOB upgrade scripts. As a part of OOB installation, customer has been advised to run the drop_old_tables_columns.sql script inorder to remove certain old columns and tables from 6.5 which are no longer used in the upgraded versions. There is a drop column done on event_billing_product_action_t and event_t as a part of this process.
Below are few questions from customer:
1) Is it possible to keep these columns as unusable instead of physically dropping them?
2) Will this have any impact on the BRM functinality? The table has got millions of records and takes around 4hrs per column drop and this increases the upgrade window considerably.
