Re: [SR-Users] Question on Database Version Table

It's probably also worth noting that Kamailio's DB layer offers "unpredictable" reactions to columns which are missing and which the given version expects to be there.

"Unpredictable" generally means a crash, but when it happens -- the presence of columns isn't always validated at boot time, depends on the module -- is the unpredictable part... So, modernising your DB schema for built-in module tables, including seldom-used tables which are nevertheless formally used to back some module, is important when doing upgrades.
