3.4.0 Matrix Server Upgrade Guide

Chapter 3: Non-Rolling Upgrades 18

Output from the utility appears on the screen and is also written to the

Application Log section of the Event Viewer. We recommend that you

fix any problems identified by mxcheck before you install Matrix

Server.

11. On each server in group A, restore the Matrix Server configuration

that you saved in step 3. Be sure to copy the \conf directory back to its

original location: %Program Files%\PolyServe\MatrixServer\conf.

12. On each server in group A, install Matrix Server 3.4.0. Locate the file

MxS_3.4.0.<xxxx>.msi on the product CD or in the directory where you

downloaded the software. Double-click on the MxS_3.4.0.<xxxx>.msi

file and run the Installation Wizard. To complete the installation,

reboot the servers when directed by the popup message.

13. On each server in group A, install any PolyServe Solution Packs.

– For MxFS for CIFS, insert the Solution Pack CD into the CD drive

or go to the location where you have downloaded the software.

Then double-click the file MxFS_3.4.0.<xxxx>.msi and run the

Installation Wizard.

– For MxDB for SQL Server, insert the Solution Pack CD into the CD

drive or go to the location where you have downloaded the

software. Then double click the file MxDB_SQL_3.4.x.<xxxx>.msi

and run the Installation Wizard.

14. Open the Matrix Server Connect window and enter the login

credentials for a server in group A, but type admin for both the user

and the password. Click the down arrow on the Connect button to see

the options, and then click on Configure. (The upgrade does not retain

your Administrator password; you will need to set it again in step 15.)

15. Install the new license file. On the General Settings window, select

Change License File and install the new license. Next, set the

Administrator password if you are using a value other than the

default.

16. Click Apply on the bottom of the Matrix Configuration window. (You

may be prompted to reenter the Administrative password. You can

click Apply again if necessary to redisplay the password prompt.)

Answer No when you are asked whether you want to start the matrix.
