Verify files before and after a server upgrade
Both before and after you upgrade the server, we recommend that you use the p4 verify command:
-
Before the upgrade, verify the integrity of:
-
submitted file revisions by running:
$ p4 verify -q //...
-
shelved files (if any) by running:
$ p4 verify -qS //...
-
- Take a checkpoint.
- Copy the checkpoint and your versioned files to a safe place.
- Perform the server upgrade.
-
After the upgrade, verify the integrity of
-
submitted file revisions by running:
$ p4 verify -q //...
-
shelved files (if any) by running:
$ p4 verify -qS //...
-
