I had been upgrading DataStage 7.5.1.A version server installation and due to some acces issues with my login credentials after some time the upgrade process failed.
Now when i tried again to upgrade the server the projects doesn't show up there, they seemed to be gone. I tried logging in from designer but it shouts back at me with the following message:
Thanks Ray for your reply.
I already opened an ecase with the support provider for new license but my query is " whether i will be able to connect and access the old projects after the installation/upgrade". It am not able to access it right now.
I haven't failed, I've found 10,000 ways that don't work.

Afte a long day, i got to know from IBM support that my previous installation got "hosed" and they asked me to re-install with the new authorization codes. I had done the re-install and got my project re-imported back and in next few days i have to analyze the behaviour of the jobs on the new install. Hope everything goes fine.
Thanks for all help

If it makes you feel any better, some people would do the upgrade the way you wound up doing it anyway. I never really liked upgrades so I always installed then imported the projects. Then one contract insisted on an upgrade and DS 5.x went to DS 7.x on Unix and it worked. So now I am OK with Upgrades.
Thanks Flash that makes me feel better but isn't it a good approach to do an upgrade rather than a re-install unless in my current position when there is no other go.
