Question
Why is the file size of the myQA Daily software database bigger than before the update to version 1.3 SWP-2024-0003?
Answer
During the software upgrade of myQA Daily to version 1.3 (SWP-2024-0003), a database migration is required. This process will result in the database file size increasing to up to double its original size.
Post-upgrade, the database file will retain this increased size, although the actual data within will remain the same as before the migration. Any potential duplicates will be removed automatically after the migration.
The database file size will not increase further with the addition of new data until the new data fills the expanded database file. At that point, the file size will grow in accordance with the data size.
Recommendation:
We recommend verifying that the myQA Daily database file location has sufficient free space to accommodate at least double the current size.
As with any update, we strongly advise backing up the database before proceeding with the upgrade and migration.
