Error or Warning Message

The enterprise database specified '<Database_Name_Here'> exists, however it is not structurally valid.

Please select a different enterprise database.

 

How to Avoid

Option 1 gINT did not create the SQL enterprise database

If you try to create the database first and then upsize to it you will see the above message.  Delete the database and its associated files.  Do the upsize again.  gINT will create the database during the upsize process.

 

Option 2 The enterprise database has become damaged

 If your enterprise database has become damaged you could see the above message.  Restore it from a backup.
