INSTALLATION
This chapter covers the methods to update ECS and system firmware
on Eclipse hardware and panels that support firmware updates.
Before attempting to uninstall or install ECS or any ECS
prerequisites the user must be logged in to the PC with
administrator rights.
During an ECS installation the PC may need to restart a number of
times, depending on which packages need to be installed for ECS.
Depending on the PC configuration and resources a full installation of
ECS and all updates may take over an hour.
UPDATING ECS
When updating any installation of ECS 1.x, 2.x, 3.x or 4.x to 5.x the
existing ECS should normally be completely uninstalled after saving
and exporting the system configurations. It is possible to install and
run ECS V5.2 alongside a previous version of ECS; however this
option is not supported and is not recommended for normal use.
ECS 5.2 stand-alone or client installation no longer requires the SQL
server to be installed. To reduce system resource use any existing
SQL server installation may be removed as part of the V5.2 upgrade
provided it is not being used for any other purpose such as running
previous versions of ECS.
If ECS is being installed as a server then the SQL server is required
and will be installed if not present. If the correct version of SQL server
is already present a new instance will be created.
Note: ECS V5.2 server will create a a new instance of the SQL
server with a different name to that used by previous
versions of ECS to allow a previous version to operate. The
SA password used for the CLEARCOM52 database instance
has changed from clearSA (pre-V5.0) to CL34R_com.
In order to uninstall ECS 1.x, 2.x, 3.x the uninstall should be carried out
by opening the ‘Programs’ menu from ‘Start’ and selecting the ECS
entry. The ECS entry should include an Uninstall option.
i.e. Start > Programs > CLEAR-COM > Eclipse Configuration
Software > Uninstall Eclipse Configuration Software
Select this to uninstall ECS.
