You can install can install this version over an existing 7.x or 8.x Reflection for Secure IT server. The upgrade replaces the existing version. Prior to any upgrade, we recommend that you back up your server configuration file (rsshd_config.xml). This may be useful if you want to revert to an earlier version at some point in the future. After applying the upgrade, you need to restart Windows to complete the installation.
Starting with version 8.2.1, program and configuration files are created in new locations that use the current company name, Micro Focus, in places that previously used Attachmate. The installer automatically migrates your existing configuration files and host keys to the new location. Your original data remains in the original location, but files in this location are no longer used. After the upgrade:
Migrated configuration files and host keys are in C:\ProgramData\Micro Focus\RSecureServer.
The Windows Start menu shortcut for launching the server console is now under .
NOTE:
If you have configured the server to use a non-default data folder, the server will continue to use your custom location after the upgrade.
If you are running in a Microsoft Cluster Server environment, see Upgrade in a Cluster Environment..
