Installation guide
Note:
The IMPAX 6.5.3 AS300 server platform is Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1. If necessary,
existing servers can be restaged with this operating system, assuming that the hardware is
64-bit compatible. All upgrades are forklift upgrades and involve fresh installations onto
restaged or new hardware. Refer to the IMPAX 6.5.3 AS300 Installation and Configuration
Guide for more details.
Prior to a forklift upgrade of an IMPAX AS300 Network Gateway, Archive Server, or Curator, any
critical files should be backed up to an appropriate location. During the upgrade itself, the files on
the new server can be compared with that of the old server.
