Attributes

Attribute Description
BeginFromSchemaVersion
Optional Integer. Specifies the starting point of a schema version range to which this upgrade definition applies.
EndFromSchemaVersion
Optional Integer. Specifies the end of a schema version range to which this upgrade definition applies.
FromProductVersion
Optional Integer. Specifies the product version of the original site definition to which this upgrade definition applies.
ID
Required Integer. Specifies the identifier (ID) of the site definition to be upgraded. This value corresponds to the ID attribute of the Template element.
LocaleId
Optional Integer. Specifies the locales to which the site upgrade definition applies. Set to * to imply that the definition applies to all site definition upgrades.

If the locale-specific definition does not exist, SharePoint Foundation falls back to the * upgrade definition.
RemoveSiteExternalSecurityProvider
