Option Action
If you are upgrading the Model

Select the Model Manager Data check box in the vCAC Server section.
The check box is selected by default. Upgrade the Model Manager data
only once. If you are running the setup le on multiple machines to
upgrade a distributed installation, the Web servers stop functioning while
there is a version mismatch between the Web servers and the Model
Manager data. When you have upgraded the Model Manager data and all
of the Web servers, all of the Web servers should function.
If you are not upgrading the Model
Manager Data
Unselect the Model Manager Data check box in the vCAC Server section.
To preserve customized workflows
as the latest version in your Model
Manager Data
If you are upgrading the Model Manager Data, select the Preserve my
latest  versions check box in the Extensibility Workows section.
The check box is selected by default. Customized workows are always
preserved. The checkbox determines version order only. If you used
vRealize Automation Designer to customize workows in the Model
Manager, select this option to maintain the most recent version of each
customized workow before upgrade as the most recent version after
upgrade.

upgrade, and the most recent version before upgrade becomes the second
most recent.
