Run the Campaign installer in upgrade mode

Part of the upgrade process involves running the Campaign installer in upgrade mode.

Upgrading Campaign involves two main steps: You run the installer in upgrade mode, then you run the acUpgradeTool. For complete information, see Steps for upgrading from Campaign 8.5 or 8.6.

Follow these guidelines to run the installer in upgrade mode:

To ensure that the IBM_EMM_Installer installer runs in upgrade mode, select the same directory as your current installation when you run the installer. The installer detects your existing version of Campaign and prompts you to confirm the upgrade.

For instructions on how to run the installer in GUI, console, or unattended mode, see Step: Run the IBM EMM installer.

When upgrading to v9.0, there is no need to select the installer option for Automatic DB Setup. This option is intended for new installations, not upgrades.

If you are rerunning the installer on a system where other IBM® products are installed, do not reinstall the other products.

If a response file was previously created and you run in unattended mode, the installer uses the installation directory that was previously set. If you want to upgrade using unattended mode when no response file exists, create a response file by running the installer manually for your first installation, and be sure to select your current installation directory in the installation wizard.

If you want to create an EAR file after the upgrade, see To create an EAR file after running the installer
