Upgrading Replication Server v7

You can install Replication Server 7 when you have existing single-master or multi-master replication systems that are running under Replication Server version 7.

It is assumed that you are installing Replication Server 7.x on the same host machine that is currently running the earlier version of Replication Server you are upgrading from and that you will then manage the existing replication systems using Replication Server 7.x.

If you are using a version of Replication Server earlier than 6.2.x on Linux, first upgrade to 6.2.x, and then upgrade to version 7.x. See:

• Upgrading from a Replication Server 6.2 installation on Linux

For more details on upgrading Replication Server, see:

• Updating the publication and subscription server
• Upgrading from a Replication Server 7.x installation on Linux
• Upgrading with the graphical user interface installer

After upgrading and before using Replication Server, you need to download a JDBC driver and create a symlink to it (for Linux) or rename the driver (for Windows). See Installing a JDBC driver for more information.
