Warning

For installations older then v4.11.1, it's required to update to v4.11.1 before upgrading to newer versions because the database migration system was changed in v4.11.1. Contact X-Formation Support to obtain the License Statistics v4.11.1 installation prior to following the procedure given in this section. 

  1. Back up the following files:
    • License Statistics configuration file (xflicstat.cfg), located in the License Statistics installation directory by default
    • License Statistics license file (license.lic), located in the License Statistics installation directory by default
    • 3rd party utilities (for example, query tools), which should be moved to a location outside of the License Statistics installation directory to avoid their removal by the installer
  2. Back up the database, depending on which database hosting you are using:
  3. Stop License Statistics.
  4. Remove the current installation.
