Manager
v.59 Multi-User Upgrade Bulletin - updated April 2007
Updating Multi-User Manager
or ManagerPlus version 5.7/5.8 to version 5.9
Updating Multi-user Manager or ManagerPlus
should be performed by a qualified system engineer.
If you wish to perform the update yourself, a basic
understanding of your network configuration is required.
There are essentially two steps
to the upgrade. Using the new CD-ROM an administrative
install is first performed, the second step is to
run the workstation installation.
Step 1: Upgrade First Workstation
(Administrative Installation):
1) Logon to the network and make
certain Manager or ManagerPlus is present on the machine
you intend to do the upgrade from.
2) Shut down the management software
on all workstations.
3) Insert the CD-ROM into a workstation
that has manager installed. If the installation menu
does not automatically appear, you may run setup.exe
from the root directory of the installation CD.
4) Once the installation starts,
accept the defaults on all screens. The software will
automatically find and update the main application
and database.
Step 4 completes the administrative
installation. Please remove and safeguard the installation CD-ROM for future use. You
may move on to step 5.
Step 2: Upgrade Other Workstations
(Workstation Installation) from First Workstation:
5) From each workstation click on
my computer and locate the drive letter that represents
the location on the server where the management software
is installed. Typically it will be at m:\Manager\Series(1
or 2), check with your system administrator if you
are unable to locate the main program drive and directory.
6) Double click on SETUP.EXE found
in the main program folder on the server.
7) Accept the defaults to install
the updated workstation software.
8) Continue this process on each
workstation.
When all workstations have been
updated, you may start using the new version.
