No upgrade script for DM upgrade to 5.0.2

When we look at the documentation for the Design Manager upgrade (5.0.1 
to 5.0.2)                                                               
                                                                        
http://www-01.ibm.com/support/knowledgecenter/SSB2MU_8.1.2/com.ibm.rcam.install.doc/topics/t_upgrade_dm_single.html                        
                                                                        
There is only a section for calling the upgrade script of JTS and VVC (under the headline DM upgrade, directory DM_... what is wrong) 
                                                                                                                             
But looking to the installation, there is a dm_upgrade.bat available    
and it seems that the upgrade isn't complete without running it (e.g.   
teamserver.property of DM not copied)                                   
                                                                        
Does anyone know, if this a documentation error and if this        
upgrade script must  run (something like upgrade\dm\dm_upgrade.bat -     
oldApplicationHome DM_<previous_version>_install_dir\server\conf) ?

Sorry for the inconvenience. This is a documentation defect tracked by
Upgrade documentation is missing critical DM upgrade step.

The missing step is:
To upgrade the Design Management server, open a command shell, go to the DM_<latest_version>_install_dir/server directory, then enter the following command:
  • Windows: upgrade\dm\dm_upgrade.bat -oldApplicationHome DM_<previous_version>_install_dir \server\conf
  • Linux: upgrade/dm/dm_upgrade.sh -oldApplicationHome DM_previous_version_install_dir /server/conf

Thanks.

We already thought so and made all our tests with vvc_upgrade and dm_upgrade scripts.
