4.2.1 Before You Begin Checklist

Before you begin the Upgrade of the LANSA for the Web Server ONLY task, check the following:

  • Have you reviewed the General Install/Upgrade Checklist?
  • Have you scheduled the upgrade at a time when no developers, users, or jobs will be using the LANSA system?
  • Have you checked that there are no jobs/users accessing LANSA? Check as described in How to check for Active Users.
  • Have you backed up the libraries that you will be updating?
  • Have you verified that there are no existing installer/loader objects in QGPL? Refer to Remove old Loader Objects from QGPL for details.

Note: During earlier versions of LANSA, the LANSA install and upgrade objects were placed in QGPL. Now, the LANSA upgrade creates its own work library. For further information, refer to Back up your Libraries.

If you answer Yes to all these questions, go to Start the Web Server upgrade.
