Finalize upgrade (Windows SharePoint Services)

Applies To: Windows SharePoint Services 3.0

 

Topic Last Modified: 2007-12-13

For an in-place or gradual upgrade, after all sites have been upgraded you can finalize the upgrade. Finalizing upgrade removes the connection to the previous version and cleans up any temporary data.

After you finalize upgrade, you cannot go back to the farm upgrade process.
