Run Manager Installation

All previously installed components are upgraded. Upgrading the previously installed components is mandatory and all existing configurations are maintained. You can also select new components that you want to install with the upgrade. Newly selected components can be configured during the installation.

Perform this procedure after you determine that all prerequisites have been met. If you decide to skip a component configuration during installation, configure this component after the installation using the Administration tab of the graphical user interface.

Note: For more information about configuration of components, see the Administration Guide.
