This section provides information to help you upgrade your existing installation to Workflow Automation. You can upgrade Workflow Automation using one of the following methods:
An in-place upgrade enables you to use the following non-clustered to non-clustered upgrade paths:
|
WFA Server Base Version |
WFA Server Updated Version |
|---|---|
|
Workflow Automation 10.1, 10.1.1, 10.2 |
Workflow Automation 10.2.2 |
To perform an in-place upgrade on non-clustered 64-bit environments, simply run the Workflow Automation setup program on your existing Workflow Automation computers. It is not necessary to stop any Workflow Automation services that may be running. For more information about installing Workflow Automation and the order in which to install components, see Installing Workflow Automation Components in a Non-Cluster Environment.
NOTE:Any Workflow Automation adapters that are not built-in to the Workflow Automation installer, must be uninstalled and reinstalled post upgrade.
After upgrading Workflow Automation, it is necessary to run the global task "Deploy Activity Module Updates." in the Workflow Automation Configuration Console. This task will update activities in the existing processes.
You cannot perform an in-place upgrade on a cluster. In this case you must install the full version of Workflow Automation 10.2.2 onto the cluster. See Installing Workflow Automation Components in a Cluster Environment. Then migrate your data to the new installation. For more information, see Migrating Your Existing Data to a New Environment.
These steps guide you through the process of migrating the data from your existing installation to a new environment in the following scenario: Migrating a cluster environment
To migrate your existing data to a new environment:
In your current Workflow Automation installation, stop the following services:
Workflow Automation Activity Broker service
Workflow Automation Correlation Engine service
Workflow Automation Engine service
Workflow Automation Namespace Provider
Workflow Automation Business Services Layer
On the Database Server computer for your current installation of Workflow Automation, back up the following databases:
Aegis
IQRM
For more information about backing up databases, see the appropriate Microsoft documentation.
On the Database Server computer in your new environment, restore the databases. For more information about restoring databases, see the appropriate Microsoft documentation.
Run the Workflow Automation setup program on the computers in your new environment using one of the following checklists:
