To verify the progress of the upgrade, go back to Data Configuration home page and click on Request History tile under Activity History section.
The status initially shows as Scheduled then it moves to In Progress and Completed.

Once the TDM upgrade is completed, verify it from Activity History or from the Notifications bell icon.
A new banner on Data Configuration home page shows up for content patch upgrade.
Schedule the content patch upgrade.
Note: The content patch upgrade is coupled with the pipeline refresh. Content patch upgrade runs after the pipeline has run on the date you selected in the content patch upgrade banner. For example, if you have scheduled the content patch upgrade for a future date 23-March and your daily incremental pipeline refresh happens at 6PM local time, then the content patch upgrade happens after the pipeline refresh on 23-March.
