This chapter explains how to perform software upgrades. It also provides basic maintenance
procedures for the Strata CTX Attendant Directory Database.
Software Upgrade Procedure
This procedure is the same a fresh installation. Follow the steps listed under
“First Time
Installation” on page 11
. If there is an existing earlier version of CTX Attendant software on the
target machine, the installer removes the old and installs the new software version onto the target
machine.
If there is an existing software that is the same version as the release version, the installer prompts
you to Remove or Cancel the installed software.
•
If you select Cancel, the installer halts the process without changing the existing installed
software.
•
If you select OK, the installer removes the currently installed CTX Attendant software from the
target machine and installs the new version.
Directory Database Maintenance
Back Up Database
Backing up the current database is a recommended prior to upgrading the CTX Attendant Console
software or when removing the database.
1. Select Start > Programs > Strata CTX Attendant >
CTX Attendant Database Utility.
2. Click the Backup button (shown right).
3. Select or enter the target folder where you want to
store the backup file, then click OK. Remember this
folder so you can specify its name when you wish to
restore the database.
When the back up is done, the Status line shows
“Database Backup Complete.” “Pcatt.bak” is the
backup file; however, you generally won’t need to
refer to this file.
4. Click Exit when done.
