Downgrade of 2.9.1 to 2.9.0 triggers deletion WinVFS #9114
Comments
Behavior with test scenario downgrade testpilotcloud 2.9.1rc2 to testpilotcloud 2.9.0:
Result:
|
Additionally tested: downgrade testpilot 2.9.1rc2 to 2.8.2 Result: Cfg-files: |
This happens as the client config location for some branded clients changed with 2.9 compared to 2.8 |
When updating to testpilot 2.9.1rc2 again the accounts are available again, everything is like before. I will retest with the unbranded client. |
Confirmed that the downgrade for the unbranded client from client 2.9.1rc2 to 2.8.2 behaves like downgrade to 2.9.0, the sync folder connection gets removed, see #9114 (comment). Only difference is that on have to enter the credentials for th accounts. Further testing: it's possible to choose the previous folder on 'Add Folder Sync Connection' and reuse it. |
As far as possible we prevent a downgrade, in branded scenarios a downgrade is not supported at all. |
2.9.1 uses a branded registration id for WinVFS sync roots.
Clients < 2.9.1 try to unregister previous ids.
An unregistration causes all placeholders to vanish.
In a small testing scenario this doesn't look too bad as all files will disappear at once and we will be presented with the
Delete all/keep all dialog.
In a real world scenario however will will have some hydrated files, so it appears to the client as if those files where explicitly deleted.
