NOTE:

If you are upgrading an existing System Reporter installation to the 3.1 release, upgrade

the CLI to version 3.1.2. You do not need to reinstall the optional MySQL database or Apache
web server. You only need to reinstall the System Reporter Tools as described in

“Installing or

Upgrading the System Reporter Tools” (page 42)

. If you wish to keep the previously collected data,

you must specify the same database during the installation process. The System Reporter installer
for Microsoft Windows will automatically detect previous settings and offer the option to upgrade
the existing installation.

System Reporter 3.1 MU1 will automatically convert the earlier release database tables into the
format that it needs. If you wish to retain the tables in an earlier format, you must make a backup
copy of the database before upgrading.

All table updates are logged in the sampleloop.log. Contact your customer service representative
if any tables fail to update properly.

The following flowchart (

Figure 3 (page 29)

) provides a visual representation of the installation

process for a new installation that is described in detail in the following sections.
