4. If an existing Cisco TMS database is found on the specified SQL server, a prompt asks whether you want
to re-use the existing database. If the database is an older version and you select Yes, Cisco TMS
automatically updates the existing database to the current version and retains the existing information. If
you choose No, the installer quits and you must manually remove the database from the SQL server if you
wish to use that SQL Server. Read Upgrading From a Previous Cisco TMS Version before proceeding with
an upgrade to ensure you are prepared for any additional steps or changes that must be performed based
on your previous Cisco TMS version.
