xSuite Archive Prism Installation Guide

Updating xSuite Archive Prism

Caution

Previous versions of xSuite Archive Prism consisted of 2 separate installations for xSuite Archive Prism and for xSuite Encore Prism. In the current version, xSuite Encore Prism is integrated into xSuite Archive Prism.

After updating xSuite Archive Prism to version 2.0.2, only a Windows service is available.

Caution

Create the necessary backups before updating. Missing backups can lead to data loss.

An update from xSuite Archive Prism 2.0.x to version 2.0.2 is carried out using the same setup as a new installation (see [→Install xSuite Archive Prism]). The setup steps for an update are basically the same as for a new installation. When updating, most of the fields are pre-assigned with the data of the existing xSuite Archive version.
