hi...can you please confirm that upgrading from RM7.4 to 7.5 is just an EAR file replacement and not a complete new install?  That's what the download page says but I just want to make sure.

 

Thanks.

    Hi,

     

    indeed, 7.4 -> 7.5 is just the ear file :)

    Anything earlier -> 7.5 requires the installer.

    @sgenzer yes I can confirm it's just an ear you need as I upgraded our development one with no issues.

    I'm 99% confident that it is just an EAR replacement but let me double check with Development.

    awesome.  Thanks all.  I will also update the AWS RM Server public AMI that I am maintaining if anyone is interested.

    ok first update went well...only one minor thing.  I notice that in System Settings, the com.rapidanalytics.version.configured remains unchanged to 7.4.000.  Should I change this manually to 7.5.000?

    Hi,

     

    that is only used internally to determine if after an upgrade of RM Server there needs to be a migration of sorts to accomodate for some changes. As there were no such changes this time around, the version is not bumped.

    You can safely ignore that :)

    Hi,

     

    and to preemptively add to this: You can also upgrade to RM Server 7.5.1 with just replacing the .ear file (both from 7.4.0 directly as well as from 7.5.0)

     

    Regards,
