Do not uninstall an existing version of ArcGIS GeoEvent Server before installing the new version of GeoEvent Server. Instead, run the ArcGIS GeoEvent Server installer to properly upgrade your existing GeoEvent Server configuration to the new version.
The GeoEvent Server installer is designed to detect and upgrade an existing installation of GeoEvent Server on the target system.
Before upgrading to a new version of GeoEvent Server, it is recommended you export your GeoEvent Serverconfiguration using ArcGIS GeoEvent Manager and back up any installed or added components. The components are added to the following folder: <arcgis-geoevent-install-location>\deploy.
For any added components, you might need to modify the code, release numbers, configurations, and rebuild with the appropriate version of the GeoEvent Server Software Development Kit.
Before upgrading to a new version of ArcGIS Server and GeoEvent Server, it is recommended you stop the ArcGIS GeoEvent Windows service and set its Startup type to Manual. This will ensure GeoEvent Serverdoes not get into a unsupported state with mismatched software releases on the same machine. Once the upgrade of ArcGIS Server and GeoEvent Server has completed successfully, set the ArcGIS GeoEvent Windows service Startup type back to Automatic, the default type.
