> When a crash happens during hard upgrade of derby, the upgrade -up to that point - is not rolled back. Depending on where the crash happens this might leave a broken database behind.
> This makes it extra important to create a backup before doing a hard upgrade.
> I have not tested this with a soft upgrade.
> I will attach a test case which uses the upgrade test suite framework and uses a call of SanityManager.DEBUG_SET("upgrade_abort") to send a flag, and a change in impl/sql/catalog/DD_version to listen for this flag.
> Thus, it's only a test that would run in a sane environment.
> But this test does show that even if we see the error during hard upgrade, the resulting database appears to be in the newer version. I have manually tested this with 10.11 (by modifying DD_version in 10.11 to throw the error regardless of sanity manager or not) and with 10.12 by running my new test.
