upgrading domino and ddm (Domino Domain Monitoring)

[rob@xxxxxxxxx]

I am not sure if this one Domino server ever had  beta code or not.  It 
would have been the most likely one to have ever had beta code.

It is now running Domino 7.0.2FP2.  I want to upgrade it to 7.0.3.  Part 
of the release instructions say:

<snip>
If upgrading from an earlier beta release of Domino 7, here is the 
recommended procedure for updating DDM Configuration in your domain:

- before upgrading your domain, it is very important to delete all 
existing DDM Probe documents, DDM Filter documents, and Server Collection 
Hierarchies in the Monitoring Configuration database. These documents are 
highly likely to be stale and could result in DDM functionality problems 
in your domain. Allow time for the deletion of these documents to 
replicate throughout your domain before proceeding.

- when upgrading servers to Domino 7, be sure to deletethe Domino Domain 
Monitor database (ddm.nsf) on all servers. This database will be 
automatically re-created upon launching each Domino 7 server.

- replace design of both the Monitoring Configuration (events4.nsf) and 
Domino Domain Monitor (ddm.nsf) databases, so that they include the most 
current template code

- create/configure new DDM Probe documents, DDM Filter documents, and 
Server Collection Hierarchies in the Monitoring Configuration database

the Domino Domain Monitoring database will quickly populate with results, 
based on your newly created configuration

If I am not upgrading to 7, but upgrading WITHIN 7, will it still recreate 
the ddm.nsf?
If I am not upgrading to 7, but upgrading WITHIN 7, will it still 
repopulate the DDM Probe documents, DDM Filter documents, and Server 
Collection Hierarchies in the Monitoring Configuration (events4.nsf) 
database?
