To Upgrade a CA Automation Point Server That Connects to a Local Notification Manager Database

Follow these steps:

1. Start the CA Automation Point Release 11.5 installation program.
2. Select the Install server option.
3. Proceed through the installation dialogs until the NM database upgrade dialog displays.
4. Select Yes. The Notification Manager database upgrade takes place immediately.
5. Continue with the CA Automation Point upgrade.

Note: You can only upgrade CA Automation Point from Release 11.3 or Release 11.4 to Release 11.5. If you have an earlier release of CA Automation Point, upgrade to CA Automation Point Release 11.3 or Release 11.4 before upgrading to Release 11.5.

Note: When the NM database resides on the same machine as an older CA Automation Point server, we recommend backing up your configuration. To create a backup of your database, run the ADDRESS VOX NMEXPORT command before each upgrade step. This backup procedure is not mandatory but is helpful to restore the previous release.

Note: When No is selected in the NM database upgrade dialog, NM database is not upgraded and Notification Manager and NM Website is disabled. To enable NM database run Configuration Manager and follow the instructions.
