Just to clarify slightly, when you upgrade to 2.3, you'll also need to run wwdb_check before running wwdb_upgrade. wwdb_check brings the database into a consistent state ("version 0") so that wwdb_upgrade can then do automatic upgrades. You only need to run wwdb_check when upgrading an existing database from version 2.1.x or 2.2.x to version 2.3.x. Once you've reached 2.3.x, wwdb_upgrade will be able to handle future database updates.
Ad-hoc database update scripts for 2.1.x and 2.2.x:
wwaddindexing - Add indexes to courses originally created with the sql database layout
wwdb_addgw - Add gateway testing fields to courses created with WeBWorK 2.2.x.
New upgrade scripts for 2.3.x:
Hope this helps.
wwdb_check - Bring database up-to-date for version 2.3.0. Run this only when upgrading from 2.1.x or 2.2.x to 2.3.x.
wwdb_upgrade - Run this when creating a new database for 2.3.x, after running wwdb_check, or when upgrading from an earlier version in the 2.3.x series.
