Airline Elite Status & Upgrades

Hi Everyone,


A bit of a noob question here: If I pay for an economy/coach ticket and then upgrade to business/first with miles...

Is it treated the same as an award ticket, and therefore I get no elite-qualifying miles credited to my account?

Or is it treated as a paid ticket and I get the miles normally awarded to me based on my paid economy/coach fare?
