Upgrading RMS v3.x to RMS Enterprise
IF YOU INTEND TO INSTALL RMS ENTERPRISE ON A SERVER THAT IS
CURRENTLY RUNNING RMS V3.x, READ AND FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS
FIRST!
Overview
If you intend to install RMS Enterprise on a server that is currently running RMS v3.3, there are a few
important steps to follow to ensure that RMS Enterprise will operate correctly, and to preserve the pre-existing
RMS application. This provides a method of reverting back to the previously installed version of RMS, if
necessary.
Upgrading an existing installation of RMS to RMS Enterprise requires a base line of
RMS v3.3, with a database version of 3.0.9 or greater. Older versions of RMS (v3.2
or lower) must be migrated to v3.3 prior to upgrading the system to RMS Enterprise
as described in this section. Refer to RMS v3.x documentation for instructions.
It is not necessary or recommended to un-install an existing version of RMS v3.3 in order to install
RMS Enterprise on the same machine. These instructions describe stopping and then disabling
RMS v3.3 services. If for any reason it is necessary to revert to the previous RMS v3.3 system,
these services can be restarted.
1) Verify System Requirements for RMS Enterprise
Since the minimum system requirements for RMS Enterprise are different than those for RMS v3.3, it is
important to verify that the current system does in fact meet these newer requirements.
Before proceeding with these instructions, verify that the current server meets the minimum system
requirements for RMS Enterprise.
Refer to the RMS Enterprise Installation Checklist section on page 5 for a detailed listing of Hardware System
Requirements, supported Server Operating Systems, Additional Software Dependencies, and more.
If your system meets these requirements, proceed with the instructions below.
2) Stop RMS v3.3 Services
In the AMX Resource Manager Suite Service Manager (FIG. 15), stop all RMS Services (select each of the
four services, and click the Stop button):
This stops the RMS v3.3 services, until they are restarted manually, or the server is restarted.
