Upgrading ArcGIS 10.0 licenses to 10.2.2
Getting started
- Prior to installation, review the ArcGIS Engine system requirements.
- The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 is required for installing ArcGIS Engine on Windows. The Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 can be downloaded from Microsoft. On Windows 7, Windows 8, Windows 8.1, Windows Server 2008 R2, Windows Server 2012 and Windows Server 2012 R2, the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 must be installed using Windows Features.
- Administrative privileges are required for installing ArcGIS Engine and the ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit.
- IMPORTANT: Software patches are required before using ArcGIS 10.2.2. Patch details and downloads are available here.
Upgrading to ArcGIS 10.2.2
- The ArcGIS 10.2.2 setup package is designed to detect and upgrade an existing installation of the same ArcGIS 10.1 (including Service Pack 1 [SP1]) 10.2 or 10.2.1 product. The settings for the installation location, license manager (for Concurrent Use), or authorization information (for Single Use) are retained in the upgrade. If you are installing ArcGIS 10.2.2 over versions previous to ArcGIS 10.1, those versions must be uninstalled before ArcGIS 10.2.2 can be installed. The ArcGIS 10.2.2 setup program will guide you through the installation process.
- Existing ArcGIS 10.1 – 10.2 authorization numbers will work with ArcGIS 10.2.2.
- ArcGIS 10.2.2 for Single Use:
If ArcGIS 10.2.2 will be installed on a different machine than where ArcGIS 10.1, 10.2 or 10.2.1 is currently installed, and you wish to use the existing ArcGIS 10.1, 10.2 or 10.2.1 authorization for ArcGIS 10.2.2, the ArcGIS 10.1, 10.2 or 10.2.1 product must first be deauthorized before authorizing the ArcGIS 10.2.2 installation.
Obtaining software authorization numbers
If needed, your account's primary maintenance contact can obtain authorization numbers from the Customer Care website; click Authorization & Provisioning, and click a product name to obtain its authorization number. The license version on authorizations eligible for use with ArcGIS 10.2.2 will display as 10.1 – 10.2 on the Authorizations & Provisioning portal. For those outside the United States, contact your local distributor for information about your authorization numbers.
ArcGIS 10.2.2 License Manager
ArcGIS 10.2.2 Engine Concurrent Use requires ArcGIS 10.2.2 License Manager, which also supports ArcGIS 10.0, 10.1, 10.2 and 10.2.1. See the ArcGIS License Manager quick start guide and the ArcGIS License Manager reference guide for more information.
Upgrading ArcGIS 10.0 licenses to 10.2.2
For existing ArcGIS 10.0 users, automatic license upgrade functionality allows for an easy license upgrade process. Instead of deauthorizing older licenses and authorizing the latest version, you can convert your existing 10.0 licenses to 10.2.2 using the one-step upgrade option.
- Uninstall the ArcGIS 10.0 product without deauthorizing your existing licenses.
- Install ArcGIS 10.2.2.
- On completion of the ArcGIS 10.2.2 Engine Developer Kit installation, click Authorize. You will be prompted to upgrade your licenses if 10.0 licenses are already present. For ArcGIS 10.2.2 Engine, you will need to launch the ArcGIS Administrator. Follow the instructions to complete the upgrade process.
Authorize ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit and Engine
Single Use
- Recommended: Use an Internet connection to complete the authorization steps below.
- If you do not have an Internet connection for the machine on which you intend to install the software, you can authorize the software via email or via the Esri Customer Care website.
- If you want to facilitate the authorization process or authorize silently, a provisioning file generated from the Authorizing and Provisioning portal on the Esri Customer Care site can be used.
- After the installation, open the ArcGIS Administrator wizard.
- Select the desired Single Use product in the ArcGIS Administrator wizard.
- Select the ArcGIS Engine (Single Use) option if you only need to run Engine applications.
- Select the ArcGIS Engine and ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit (Single Use) option if you need to develop and run Engine applications.
- Click Authorize Now
- Select the default option I have installed my software and need to authorize it.
- Select Authorize with Esri now using the Internet. If using a provisioning file, select the option I have received an authorization file from Esri and browse to the file.
- Enter your personal information where applicable.
- Enter your core product authorization number (ESUxxxxxxxxx). See the Authorization and Provisioning page on the Esri Customer Care Portal to obtain this if you do not have this number available to you.
- Enter the authorization numbers for extensions if applicable. For extensions not listed, manually type in the extension name and the authorization number.
- Click Finish after the authorization process is complete.
- Click OK to close the ArcGIS Administrator. Your software is now ready for use.
Authorizing additional extensions for ArcGIS Engine Single Use
This applies if you have already authorized your ArcGIS 10.2.2 Engine Single Use software and wish to authorize additional extensions later. Follow the steps for Authorizing ArcGIS Engine Developer Kit and Engine Single Use, and at step 3, select I have already authorized the software and need to authorize additional extensions. Step 6 will not be applicable. At step 7, you will be given the opportunity to enter your authorization numbers for the applicable extensions.
Concurrent Use
Defining the license manager
- After the installation, open the ArcGIS Administrator wizard.
- Select ArcGIS Engine Runtime (Concurrent Use) in the ArcGIS Administrator wizard and specify the name of your license manager.
- Once you have set your license manager, click OK to close the ArcGIS Administrator wizard. Your software is now ready for use.
