Installation
1. Prepare test environment and ensure current backup
We highly recommend installing updates in a test environment before applying them to your production environment. You should make sure that a current backup is available in case of any unforeseen issues. To create a full backup of your MAPS environment, go to the Server -> Backups screen in MAPS and click Backup Now.
2. Check for updates
Click the Check for Updates button in MAPS Config to view available updates.
If you need to apply updates prior to the 6.12.1 update, please refer to the appropriate release guide(s) before proceeding.
It is possible to apply updates when users are on the system; however, to avoid the possibility of losing unsaved work we recommend applying updates during off hours.
3. Allow update process to complete
When applying updates to the MAPS service you will be temporarily disconnected from the server:
The update process may take a few minutes to complete. Do NOT cancel the reconnection attempt or manually restart the server. You will automatically be reconnected to the server once the update has been applied.
4. Verify the latest version is installed
To ensure that you are on the most current version, continue clicking the Check for Updates button and applying the updates until no new updates are available.
