Upgrade State“Fully Upgraded” to V7 is FALSE indicating the presence of V6 blocks. This database is ineligible to upgrade to V7.“Fully Upgraded” to V7 is TRUE indicating that all blocks in the database are V7Phase 1 starting transitional state. Blocks in this format have the offset applied to 4 byte block pointersPhase 1 complete. Directory tree blocks upgraded to 8 byte block pointersPhase 2 complete:index blocks upgraded with 8 byte block pointers with an unknown mix of V6 data and local bit map blocksFully Upgraded to V7 indicating that all blocks in the database are V7
