The service upgrade wizard displays upgraded services in a list along with services and associated databases that require an upgrade. You can also save the current or previous upgrade report.
Note: The Metadata Manager Service must be disabled before the upgrade. All other services must be enabled before the upgrade.

    2. Select the application services and associated databases to upgrade.

    If you choose to automatically recycle application services after the upgrade, the upgrade wizard restarts the services after they have been upgraded.

    6. Enter the repository login information.
    7. Click Next.
    The service upgrade wizard upgrades each application service and associated database and displays the status and processing details.
    8. When the upgrade completes, the Summary section displays the list of application services and their upgrade status. Click each service to view the upgrade details in the Service Details section.
    9. Optionally, click Save Report to save the upgrade details to a file.
    If you choose not to save the report, you can click Save Previous Report the next time you launch the service upgrade wizard.
    10. Click Close.
    11. If you did not choose to automatically recycle application services after the upgrade, restart the upgraded services.
You can view the upgrade report and save the upgrade report. The second time you run the service upgrade wizard, the Save Previous Report option appears in the service upgrade wizard. If you did not save the upgrade report after upgrading services, you can select this option to view or save the previous upgrade report.
