Possible to skip SQL version checking on upgrade from 4.0.3 to 5.0
Hello,
Background:
We currently have a CLM 4.0.3 environment running on MSSQL2008. We would like to upgrade to CLM 5.0.
Unfortunately, the infrastructure team who are supposed to deliver a MSSQL2012 database-cluster, have fallen behind schedule and will most likely first be able to deliver in 4-5 weeks. We have gotten an 'OK' from support to run CLM 5.0 on the old database-cluster (MSSQL2008) as an unsupported solution until the new databasecluster is delivered.
Our issue:
When we try to run the migration, it fails with a SQL server version verification step:
CRJAZ1256I SQL Server version 11.x is required but version "10.50.4286" was detected instead.
We have tried to uncomment:
CRJAZ1256I SQL Server version 11.x is required but version "10.50.4286" was detected instead.
We have tried to uncomment:
set DEFINE=%DEFINE% -Dcom.ibm.team.osgi.patch.skipVersionChecking=true
in the repotools.bat file but to no avail.
Is there any way we can skip the version checking or do we have to wait for the new database-cluster?

As you are apparently already in contact with support, I would suggest to get back to them and ask if this is somehow possible. I would assume the check is there for a reason and it might not possible. However, they have the contacts to ask.

Yes, we are in contact with support and they will try to deliver a solution.
I threw a 'hail mary' here on jazz.net in hopes that there was an easy way to get around the version verification. Thank you for the reply though!
Regards,
