File System Solution Upgrade
After upgrading to Enterprise Auditor 11.6, run the latest version of the File System > 0.Collection > 0-Create Schema job to migrate the File System Solution to the latest database schema.
This database schema migration should be performed before running other jobs in the File System Solution after upgrading to Enterprise Auditor 11.6.
See the File System Solution topic for additional information.
Configure Global Sensitive Data Settings
CAUTION: The new global Settings will overwrite any previously configured criteria. Make a note of any configured Sensitive Data Criteria before commencing the upgrade Enterprise Auditor. Sensitive Data Criteria must be reconfigured after an upgrade.
If Sensitive Data Criteria are configured differently for each solution, re-configure the criteria selection at the solution level. See the Sensitive Data Discovery Add-On topic and the topic for the applicable solution for additional information.
If the same Sensitive Data Criteria are used for all solutions, configure the criteria selection at the global Settings > Sensitive Data node, which will then be used by default in all solutions. See the Sensitive Data Discovery Add-On topic for additional information.
Follow the steps to configure Sensitive Data Criteria at the global level.
Step 1 – The Sensitive Data node provides configuration options to manage sensitive data criteria and false positive exclusion filters. These settings require the Sensitive Data Discovery Add-on. See the Sensitive Data Discovery Add-On topic for additional information.
Step 2 – If the same Sensitive Data Criteria are used for all solutions, configure the criteria selection at the global Settings level, which will then be used by default in all solution sets. Navigate to the Settings > Sensitive Data node and click Add to open the Select Criteria window.
Step 3 – Select the desired criteria. Use the Search Criteria text field to filter the list using keywords or expand each category to view and select individual Sensitive Data search criteria, then click OK.
By default, Sensitive Data Criteria configured at the global Settings level is inherited down to the applicable solutions.
