BI 4.2 SP4 to SP5 Update
In this blog, I would like to share steps that followed to Update BI from 4.2 SP4 to SP5.
BI 4.2 SP5 got Few Enhancements which are useful to BI Admin’s .
Environment: Windows
Existing BI Version: BI 4.2 SP4
Upgraded BI Version: BI 4.2 SP5
Database: Microsoft SQL Server 2012
Pre-requisites to be followed:
- CMS (Central Management Server) –> Should be Up and running
- Input/output Repository –> Should be up and running
- CMS Database
- Need to backup of Tomcat Configuration Files
- Need to Take DB backup
- Before Upgrading we need to check PAM
Software:
we have two types of Files for BI
- Full Bundle Installation
- Update File
BI 4.2 SP5 Update Files.
Provide your CMS name and enter Administrator Password
from 4.2 Release we have 2 options to Install BI
1. Standard Installation
2. Phase-wise Installation (Reduced Downtime)
after Installation we did not see Promotion management wizard.
whenever updates are performed already existing components are upgraded where promotion management wizard is a new enhancement in SP5. Selected modified installation from Control Panel and then selected “Promotion Management Wizard”
New Features Present in BI 4.2 SP5 will be covered in Another blog……
Are the steps and process same if I am updating from version 4.1 SP5 to 4.2 SP5?
Yes, the steps are the same.
Thank you!
