Upgrading IBM RPA 19.0.0.x to IBM RPA 19.0.0.4

During the upgrade process, the previous version of IBM RPA Control Room is removed and then IBM RPA 19.0.0.4 is installed.

Before you upgrade

You are strongly advised to back up your existing IBM RPA environment so you can roll back your environment if you encounter issues during or after the upgrade.

Upgrading your installation

  • For express installations with Windows authentication or custom installations, follow the instructions in Upgrading to IBM RPA 19.0.0.4 in the product documentation.
  • For express installations with SQL authentication, complete the following steps:
    1. In the C:\Program Files\Automation Anywhere\Enterprise\config\boot.db.properties file, change the value of the integratedSecurity property from false to true.
    2. In the directory that contains the extracted upgrade package, right-click upgradeControlRoom.bat, and select Run as administrator.
    3. Read and accept the license terms. You see a confirmation message when the upgrade process starts.
    4. When prompted, enter the configuration data for your installation.

Post-upgrade tasks

IBM RPA 19.0.0.4 includes a required update for bot agents. To install the update, follow the instructions in Upgrading to IBM RPA 19.0.0.4 in the product documentation.
