3 Upgrade

The process of upgrading Compliance Studio is akin to performing a fresh installation.

During this upgrade, the user is required to:

  • Unzip the CS (8.1.2.x.x) Installer: Obtain the new installer package, which contains all the necessary files for the latest version of Compliance Studio. Extract these files to a designated location on your system.
  • Configuration: Proceed with the setup by configuring the new installation. This involves entering various configuration settings, which include server details, database connections, and other relevant parameters.
  • Reuse Details from Previous Version: While most of the setup is done from scratch, certain specific details from the previous version of Compliance Studio can be reused. These details typically include configuration settings that have not changed between versions, such as database connection strings, user credentials, and possibly some custom settings or scripts.

    In essence, although the upgrade requires a fresh setup of the new version, it allows for the reuse of essential configuration details from the previous version to streamline the process and maintain continuity.
