UNSOLVED
There are lot of steps involved to check pre & post upgrade, to make it simple i can say install the exe file(target code) in your SP and run the Code Load Procedures.
As this forum can be viewed by all audience, i cannot share the detailed steps here.
Upgrade procedure is restricted to internal audience only.That's why i mentioned, its restricted. Only Field team / RCM team will do the upgrade (EMC personnel).
Though the steps are simple, there are lot more things to check pre and post upgrade.If you need more details, please check with your local EMC team.

Is it in family or out of family upgrade?
