Important
Database migration: the current dbx_mmap database driver will be finally postponed and replaced with the brand new dbx_mdbx driver.

You will get a message on startup This database is in old format that isn't supported anymore. Press Yes to convert it to the new format or No to return back.

Dummy protocol with custom Unique ID setting option should be imported manually after migration.
