Upgrading In Place, On the Same Machine

To Upgrade In Place, On the Same Machine

  1. Back Up Configuration.
  2. Verify the integrity of the backup by restoring the configuration to the existing FME Server. A successful restore indicates the backup is valid.
  3. Uninstall FME Server.
  4. Install the newer version.
  5. Note: If your FME Server installation includes an FME Server Database that is configured on your own database server, you must perform the step to Configure the FME Server Database on a Separate Database Server as part of installation. You cannot reuse the FME Server Database from a previous installation because the table schemas may differ from the upgraded version.

  6. Restore Configuration.
