Tip

Updating Intellect installed as a Service

Remote update of Intellect

The Automatic Update Service

If you install Intellect on computer where an earlier version is used, then installation will be in the updating mode.

Info
titleNote

When you update Intellect on the Server or Remote Administrator’s workstation, you should also update Intellect on Remote Client.

The compatible versions of Intellect should be installed on Remote Clients and on the Server/Remote Administrator’s workstation, i.e. the first two digits of version number should be the same (e.g. versions 4.10.4 and 4.11.0 are not compatible, but versions 4.10.3 and 4.10.4 are compatible).

Intellect from version 4.10.2 is not compatible with the earlier versions in the distributed configuration.


Note
titleAttention!

It is recommended to create database backup before updatingsee Creating the database backup copy.

To update Intellect, do the following:

  1. Unpack the installation kit as described in Getting ready for Intellect installation. The destination folder will show the contents of the kit.
  2. Run the setup.exe file to start the Intellect installation procedure.
    As a result the dialog box of choosing language is displayed.
  3. Choose the language of the Intellect installation and click the Install button.

    Note
    titleAttention!

    If Intellect is updated to a version whose second and/or third number is larger than that of the currently installed version (for example, from version 4.10.4 to 4.10.5, or 4.10.4 to 4.11.0), compatibility is lost with industry-specific vertical solutions built for old versions. This is why, during the installation process, you are asked to remove industry-specific vertical solutions.

    To remove industry-specific vertical solutions that are installed on the computer, select Yes. Otherwise, problems can occur when starting Intellect after update.
