The following are also backed up or exported:

Database
„
Registry (Kofax Document Exchange entries only)

Workflows
VRS and JRE are not backed up and cannot be rolled back. When the upgrade has been completed
successfully, you have the option of deleting some or all of your backup files.
Even though the Installer performs this automatic backup, you should still back up your data and
settings manually in case a failed upgrade cannot be rolled back.
Saving Custom Workflows
Custom workflows are not upgraded. During the upgrade, workflows are exported from the
database as part of the backup. The exported workflows are saved in the backup folder you
specify in the Installer in a workflow folder. Use the exported workflow files if you do not have
the original .wfd files.
After performing the upgrade, deploy the custom workflow on the server with Kofax
Administration Console. Refer to the Kofax Administration Console Help for more information.
Starting the Installer
Start the installation or upgrade by running the Installer from the Kofax Document Exchange
Server installation media.
Note Do not run the Installer from a UNC path.
X To start the Installer
