Upgrading Rational® Integration Tester Agent
When a new version of software becomes available, you can perform an upgrade. Use IBM® Installation Manager to update the software installation.
The procedure for upgrading the package is the same as installing, except that in IBM® Installation Manager, you choose Update instead of Install.
Before upgrading
Preserving the configuration file
Upgrading the Rational® Integration Tester
Agent software or uninstalling an older version to move to a newer version (when the upgrade is not applicable) overwrites the existing Agent.config
file. If there are settings in the Agent.config
file that must be preserved, for example, IBM® Rational® Test Control Panel domains and
environments settings, copy the existing Agent.config
file to a temporary location before upgrading. After the upgrade or uninstallation of the software has completed, overwrite the new Agent.config
file with the old Agent.config
file.
