ASG 2015 to 2016

[Clayton Jones]

I have just renewed our annual license and wondered if there were any specific requirements/instructions for upgrading from 2015 to 2016 update 3 or update 4.

Install it side by side - should be easy to switch from 2015 to 2016... Just try and if you have any problems let me know...

Is there no difference/conversion on the SQL database or is the format the same for 2016 and 2015

[DevOma]

Yes I think with Patch2 there was a small upgrade - so just copy your database and connect to the copied one...

Or wait some days - release 2017 will be published in some days :-)

Is there an official release date for 2017, and do you know at this time if there will be conversion/migraton steps for that are would you recommend going to 2016 first them 2017?

Thanks.

No release date - but it will be in the next 2 weeks...

You can migrate directly from 2015 to 2017 - else you need 2 migration steps!
