ArcGIS for Server Installation Guide - Upgrading an earlier version of ArcGIS for Server

ArcGIS 10.2.2 for Server is provided as a setup program and is executed through a utility named Setup.exe.

Caution:

Upgrading ArcGIS Server will restart all of your services. You should consider your ArcGIS Server site offline during the upgrade.

Upgrading a single machine site

If you have a single machine ArcGIS Server site, follow the steps in the sections below to upgrade the GIS server to version 10.2.2. Three options are available to upgrade your GIS server:

Upgrading a multiple machine site

If you have a multiple machine ArcGIS Server site, you'll need to upgrade each GIS server in the site to version 10.2.2. It's recommended that you upgrade each GIS server sequentially; that is, wait until the first GIS server is upgraded before applying the upgrade on the next GIS server. Each GIS server in the site must be at the same version number and be licensed exactly the same.

Three options are available to upgrade your GIS servers. Repeat the upgrade steps on each GIS server to upgrade your site to version 10.2.2.

Upgrading an existing earlier version (from 10.1 to 10.2.1) of ArcGIS Server to 10.2.2

Note:

If you see the error Upgrade patch not found. ArcGIS 10.1 for Server cannot be directly upgraded to 10.2.2 without this patch. See the installation guide for more information., you launched setup.msi instead of setup.exe. It is recommended that you use setup.exe to upgrade ArcGIS 10.1 for Server to 10.2.2. If organizational restraints prevent you from using setup.exe, see Upgrading an existing earlier version (from 10.1 to 10.2.1) of ArcGIS for Server to 10.2.2 silently using setup.msi.

During the installation, read the license agreement and accept it, or exit if you do not agree with the terms.
The ArcGIS for Server setup program displays the features that will be installed.

Note:
If you see the following dialog box after the Select Features dialog box, Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 (SP1) was not found on your machine. The .NET Extension Support feature requires .NET Framework 3.5 SP1. The .NET Extension Support feature is required for server object extension (SOE) development and use. If you intend to develop or use SOEs, follow the instructions on the dialog box to install the .NET Extension Support feature. For more information about installing Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1, see System requirements.
The ArcGIS Server account used by your existing 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1 site is prepopulated in the ArcGIS Server Account input box. Provide the password for the ArcGIS Server account used by your 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1 ArcGIS for Server site. Typically, this is the password you defined when installing 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1. If the password has changed since you installed 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1, for example, by using the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility, you'll need to enter the password you designated when modifying the account.
If the password is not validated successfully, an error message will be displayed indicating the password is invalid. If you are unsure of the password for the prepopulated ArcGIS Server account, contact your system administrator or reset your password using the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility. For more information, see The ArcGIS Server account.
If you select the second option I have a configuration file with the account information generated by a previous run of this setup, the credentials in the server configuration file must be the same credentials used by your existing ArcGIS Server site.
If you selected Specify the account name and password and manually entered the ArcGIS Server account information, the next dialog box presents you with the option to export a server configuration file. If you do not want to export a configuration file, click Next and accept the default Do not export configuration file option. If you want to export a server configuration file for future installations, select Export configuration file. Browse to a secure folder and enter a name for the configuration file.
Note:
There are several reasons you may want to export a server configuration file:
- Create the same ArcGIS Server account when installing on multiple machines.
- Store the account for use when upgrading to a newer version.
- Perform a silent installation where the user name and password are encrypted.
Caution:
When exporting a server configuration file to a network share, the Local System account on the machine where ArcGIS for Server is being installed must have write permissions to the network share. For example, if you're installing ArcGIS for Server on a machine named Quick, the Local System account on Quick must have write permission to the network share. If the permissions are not set, the server configuration file may not be exported successfully. If you are unsure how to correctly set permissions for the network share, contact your system administrator or export the server configuration file locally and copy it to the network share.
To complete the installation, follow the directions on the screen.

After the installation completes, ArcGIS Server Manager will automatically open. It is not necessary to reauthorize your ArcGIS Server or configure ArcGIS Server Manager.
If you configured ArcGIS Web Adaptor to work with your site, you'll need to install 10.2.2 as well. For instructions, see the following applicable Web Adaptor:
If you have a multiple machine ArcGIS Server site, repeat the steps above on the remaining GIS servers in your site.

Upgrading an existing earlier version (from 10.1 to 10.2.1) of ArcGIS for Server to 10.2.2 silently

Note:

If organizational restraints prevent you from using setup.exe, see Upgrading an existing earlier version (from 10.1 to 10.2.1) of ArcGIS for Server to 10.2.2 silently using setup.msi.

When upgrading silently using setup.exe, you must specify the ArcGIS Server account used by your 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1 ArcGIS for Server site. Typically, this is the account you defined when installing 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1. If the account has changed since you installed 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1, for example, by using the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility, you'll need to enter the user name and password you designated when modifying the account.

If you do not specify the ArcGIS Server account, or it does not match the ArcGIS Server account used by your current site, the installation process will display a message indicating the credentials could not be validated. As a result, the installation will exit.

You can determine the ArcGIS Server account by accessing the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility from the Start menu on the machine hosting ArcGIS Server. The ArcGIS Server account is listed in the dialog box. If you are unsure of the password for the ArcGIS Server account, contact your system administrator or reset your password using the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility. For more information, see The ArcGIS Server account.

In the example below, the ArcGIS Server account used by the 10.2 site is myaccount:

<path to ArcGIS 10.2.2 for Server setup download folder>\Setup.exe /qb USER_NAME=myaccount PASSWORD=mypassword

If you configured ArcGIS Web Adaptor to work with your site, you'll need to install 10.2.2 as well. For instructions, see the following applicable Web Adaptor:

Note:

If you have a multiple machine ArcGIS Server site, repeat the silent upgrade above on the remaining GIS servers in your site.

Upgrading an existing earlier version (from 10.1 to 10.2.1) of ArcGIS for Server to 10.2.2 silently using setup.msi

As a security concern, some organizations have restraints in place that prevent the use of executable files (.exe) within their IT infrastructure. If your organization has similar constraints in place, you can alternatively install 10.2.2 using setup.msi.

Keep in mind that it is recommended you upgrade to 10.2.2 using Setup.exe. This file accepts all supported command line parameters and will automatically install setup.msi as part of the upgrade.

To upgrade to 10.2.2 using setup.msi, follow the instructions below.

If you are upgrading ArcGIS for Server from 10.1, 10.1 SP1, 10.2, or 10.2.1 to 10.2.2, skip step 1 and proceed to step 2. On the machine hosting ArcGIS 10.1 for Server, run the following command to apply the SP1 patch:
msiexec /p <path to ArcGIS 10.2.2 for Server setup download folder>\Support\patch\ArcGISServerUG.msp /qb
Specify the ArcGIS Server account used by your 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1 ArcGIS for Server site. Typically, this is the account you defined when installing 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1. If the account has changed since you installed 10.2.1, 10.2, or 10.1, for example, by using the Configure ArcGIS Server Account Utility, you'll need to enter the user name and password you designated when modifying the account.
In the example below, the ArcGIS Server account used by the 10.2 site is myaccount:
msiexec /I <path to ArcGIS 10.2.2 for Server setup download folder>\SetupFiles\setup.msi /qb USER_NAME=myaccount PASSWORD=mypassword

If you configured ArcGIS Web Adaptor to work with your site, you'll need to install 10.2.2 as well. For instructions, see the following applicable Web Adaptor:

Note:

If you have a multiple machine ArcGIS Server site, repeat the steps above on the remaining GIS servers in your site.
