 
Recording server configuration information

 
Installing the Services Portal package information (only if you have already 
upgraded your DNCS System Release)

 
Upgrading the Services Portal Server 


 
Upgrading the Services Portal client 
See Upgrade the Services Portal (on page 53)  for complete instructions on 
upgrading your Services Portal software. 
If you feel you might need to roll back to the previous version of Services Portal for 
any reason, make sure you follow these recommendations: 
 
Keep your installation CDs of the previous version of Services Portal Client and 
Server. 
 
Make sure to follow the procedures in Preserving Your Previous Configuration 
(on page 57) as a precaution. 
Note: The upgrade process overwrites the existing config.dat file, but it preserves 
the configuration from the previous version (except for button colors).
