Installation and upgrade

Install new version using the setup

To install the new version, you no longer have to first uninstall the existing version. All settings configured in the setup during the initial installation are automatically transferred. The download folder containing all the created PDF and Excel reports is backed up.

The following parameters can be set in the setup and are automatically transferred during the update setup:

  • Mail server configuration (ARIS Administration)

  • Database configuration

All other changes that you made in the ARIS Cloud Controller console after the setup are transferred as well.

Warning

The update setup also updates ARIS Risk and Compliance installations with customizing. If the customizing contains unsupported changes or additional files, the warning Update/patch setup not supported and a list containing the affected files are output in the log file. To ensure that all customized files are available, the customizing must be enhanced again. For detailed information, refer to Installation of a customer-specific version (Customizing) (in the Technical help of the ARIS Risk and Compliance online help > Installation or in the ARCM - Installation Guide.pdf).

Since the update does not only affect ARIS Risk and Compliance, you can follow the instructions in ARIS server Update Installation in the Technical help of the ARIS online help > Installation > Update Installation.
