Remarks

When a DAC instance is upgraded, the upgrade creates a new copy of the database associated with the DAC, deploys the new DAC type, and migrates data from the original database to the new database. The upgrade then gives the original database a new name, and renames the new database to have the original name. Any tables and data that upgrade could not migrate to the new database are retained in the renamed original database, and you can migrate them manually.
