Issue/Introduction

Upgrading to UIM 20.1 mon_config_service probe is failing during 8.51 to 9.0.2 portion of upgrade process.

Cause

- upgrade issue with mon_config_service table

Environment

Release : UIM 8.51->9.02 (during upgrade)

Component : UIM - MON_CONFIG_SERVICE

Resolution

The SSRV2DeviceGroup table in the CA UIM backend database has an attribute/column named 'model_device' AND there is a statistic named 'model_device' as well which is apparently causing a conflict/error during upgrade of 8.51 to 9.0.2. 

SQL State  : S0001
Error Code : 5074
Message    : The statistics 'model_device' is dependent on column 'model_device'.

etc.

Drop/delete the named statistic, e.g.,

   DROP STATISTICS SSRV2DeviceGroup.model_device

and then deactivate and re-activate the mon_config_service probe and it should go through the table upgrades/modifications, but afterwards double-check to make sure there are no further errors in the mon_config_service log.

Manually dropping model_device in the statistics and restarting the mon_config_service probe allowed the upgrade process to continue and the mon_config_service probe turned green and had a port and a PID.
