Required Tasks after Upgrading

The following tasks are required after upgrading the server.

Copying templates to the server

Before running the server upgrade, you made a backup copy of the Templates and EmbeddedDirectives directories. See Backing up edited templates for more information.

Copy these directories to the following locations on the server.

  • Copy Notifications (body and subjects) to:
  • \HP Capture and Route\HP Capture and Route\Languages\ENU\Notifications
  • Copy CoverPages to:
  • \HP Capture and Route\Languages\ENU\Coverpages
  • Copy Distribution Routing Sheet templates to:
  • \HP Capture and Route\Languages\ENU\EmbeddedDirectives

Before running the server upgrade, you canceled all messages in the folder. For more information, see Canceling messages in the In Process Queue.

Resend the messages you canceled using the procedure below.

  1. Start the Server Administrator.
  2. Expand Messages on the Server Administrator tree. Click History.
  3. Click the button below the Canceled barometer.
  4. Go to the details pane and select All Items in the View menu.
  5. Select all items in the list, right-click and select Resend.
  6. Click OK to resend these messages.

 

Before running the server upgrade, you disabled the cleanup task so that it could not run during the server upgrade. For more information, see Disabling the cleanup task.

  1. Re-enable the cleanup function by providing the login credentials for the task. Because the cleanup task modifies the database, it requires the same login credentials as the server account.
  2. Start the Server Administrator.
  3. Click and expand Components in the console tree.
  4. Double-click Maintenance in the details pane.
  5. Click Advanced. The Maintenance Advanced Properties page opens.
  6. Click Schedule. The Enter Account Information page opens.
  7. In the Username box, enter the user name. In the Password and Confirm password boxes, enter the password.
  8. Click OK, OK and OK to save your changes.

 

After upgrading the server, you must configure the connectors and components in your environment as necessary. For example, if you are using a remote Modem Server, you must re-detect Telco channels after the upgrade. Depending on your environment and needs, you may need to perform all or none of the configurations listed below.

Note: Important! Be sure to review and note current configurations before proceeding with the upgrade process.

 

After you upgrade your legacy server, if you modify the server configuration, your actions will not remove the associated program files nor does it stop and remove associated services. For example, if you uninstall the Modem Server after an upgrade, it does not remove associated program files or stop/remove modem services. They will remain until a complete uninstallation is done.

 

Because modified conversion engine selections are lost during the upgrade, it is recommended that you review your current conversion engine selections and note the criteria you used to create them before upgrading.

Modified conversion engine selections are not retained during the upgrade process. After upgrading from a legacy server system, reconfigure the conversion engines selected for particular file types.

 

Because all channel configurations are lost during the upgrade, it is recommended that you review your current channel configurations and note the criteria you used to create them before upgrading.

All channel configurations are lost during the upgrade process. After upgrading from a legacy server system, redetect the Telco channels in order to reconfigure them. See Detecting channels for more information.
