Backing Up an Existing Installation before Upgrading

As insurance against the possibility that the upgrade cannot be successfully completed, your backup will allow you to quickly restore the earlier version.

Before you upgrade, perform these steps on all servers where Unwired Server or the data tier have been installed.

Note: On developer workstations where only Unwired WorkSpace is installed, you only need to back up the project source files.
  1. Perform a full system backup.
    In a virtual machine (VM) installation, take a snapshot of the VM.
  2. Back up the Windows registry.
