LMS 2.1 -> 2.5 upgrade problem

[bread]

Hello,

Am attempting to do the LMS 2.1 to 2.5 upgrade and the backup is failing on the cmf database. Can someone tell me how to bypass the backup and proceed with the upgrade?

Thanks

Go to Server Configuration -> Admin -> Database Management and backup the database

Once that is complete, un-install LMS 2.1

Windows: Start -> CiscoWorks -> Uninstall

Solaris: /opt/CSCOpx/bin/uninstall.sh

Then you may install Common Services 3.0
