This article lists the upgrade path to follow when upgrading Enterprise Server from an older version to a newer version of Enterprise Server, and the path for upgrading to Studio Server.
Upgrading to Enterprise Server
The following table shows the path to upgrade an older version of Enterprise Server to a newer version of Enterprise Server.
| From Enterprise Server version | To Enterprise Server version | |||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 6.x | 7.x | 8.x | 9.x | 10.0 – 10.4 | 10.5 – 10.103 |
|
| 4.x | Yes | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 |
| 5.0 | Yes | Yes | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 |
| 6.1 | - | Yes | Yes | - 1 | - 1 | - 1 |
| 7.x | - | - | Yes | Yes 2 | - 1 | - 1 |
| 8.x | - | - | - | Yes | Yes | - 1 |
| 9.x | - | - | - | - | Yes | Yes |
Legend: Yes = combination is supported. - = combination of old and new software versions is not supported.
1 It is not possible to upgrade the database at once, but you can use an older Enterprise Server to upgrade in 2 steps.
Example: Enterprise version 10 does not support upgrading from version 7 to version 10; to upgrade a version 7 database to version 10 you first have to upgrade to version 8 or 9, followed by an upgrade to version 10.
2 Our recommendation is to directly upgrade to either version 9.4.10 or to version 9.8.2. Please be aware of the following upgrade paths:
- Upgrading to version 9.4.10 can be done from versions 7.0 – 7.5.
- Upgrading to version 9.8.2 is not directly possible from version 7; this requires one of the following upgrade paths:
- An upgrade from version 7.6 to version 9.6 and then to 9.8.2
- An upgrade from version 7 to version 8 and then to 9.8.2
3 Enterprise Server 10.7 or higher does not support the Overruled Brand feature (used in print publications).
Upgrading to Studio Server
The following table shows the path to upgrade Enterprise Server to Studio Server.
| From Enterprise Server version | To Studio Server version | |
|---|---|---|
| 10.10 | 10.11 or higher | |
| 4.x – 8.x | - 1 | - 1 |
| 9.x | Yes | Yes2 |
Legend: Yes = combination is supported. - = combination of old and new software versions is not supported.
1 Requires upgrading to an intermediate version of Enterprise Server first. See Upgrading to Enterprise Server above.
2 Requires Enterprise Server 9.5 or higher. For versions 9.0 – 9.4, first upgrade to version 9.5.
