Installation guide

In the IMPAX 6.5.3 AS300 Installation and Configuration Guide, Oracle for Windows is the
recommended database for new AS300 (Windows) installations. However, when installing a new
IMPAX AS300 Database Server as part of the upgrade, if SQL Server was previously used, then you
must install SQL Server 2008 R2 (refer to page 42) as part of the IMPAX 6.5.3 upgrade, and select
the SQL Server Extension package when installing the Database Server (refer to page 45).
Migrating an IMPAX database from SQL Server to Oracle for Windows is not documented. To do
this, contact Agfa Professional Services.

package when installing the Database Server (refer to page 45).
