goal
What is the difference between repository and database version numbers?

goal
What determines the value in the fa_rep_properties database table?

fact
NetIQ Group Policy Administrator 4.6

symptom
The fa_rep_properties table of the repository database shows version 2 after an upgrade to GPA 4.6.

symptom
After performing a successful upgrade to Group Policy Administrator (GPA) version 4.6, if you launch Enterprise Manager and expand the GPO_REPOSITORY database then right click on the table fa_rep_properties and choose 'Open table - return all rows', there will be a row with the property_name 'version' that has a property_value of 2.

cause

The value displayed for the version is actually the version of the repository and not the database. In other words, this table shows a Database version of 4.6 and a repository version of 2.

fix

This is correct and the expected configuration after an upgrade to GPA 4.6.
