Upgrading Installation

Upgrading the Existing Installation

If you have the Monarch Server application v12.2+ installed on your computer and need to upgrade it to the latest version, launch the Monarch Server installer and follow the steps below.

 

NOTE

Before uninstalling the previous version, ensure that you are able to restore the original environment, either wholly (e.g., full server/resource backups) or at minimum; the backups of the Monarch Server database; and all file-based resources dependent on the RMS, Automator, and Content functionalities being utilized.

 

 

1.     In the directory with installation files, double-click MonarchServerInstaller.exe to launch the Monarch Server Installation Wizard.

2.     Click  Next.

3.     The License Agreement dialog box appears.

4.     If you agree to the license terms, select I accept the terms in the license agreement, and then click Next.

5.     The Upgrade dialog box appears. To upgrade the current application version, specify the Upgrade option.

6.     Click Next.

 

NOTE	The existing database remains, and it is upgraded to the new version. The  application  directory  remains.

 

7.     The Install Location dialog box appears.

 

NOTE	If the license includes the Automator component only, then the installation location step is skipped. If other components are installed, e.g., RMS and/or Content System, their available settings are displayed.

 

 

8.     Click Next.

The Service Credentials dialog box appears.

9.     Specify the credentials for the Server administrator:

a.     Select the Use “Local System Account” check box if you want to use your local system account.

To view the license terms for a third-party component, click the License Terms button next to the required component.

If you agree to the license terms, select I accept all the terms in all license agreements.
