For instructions on how to upgrade Active Roles, refer to the Active Roles Quick Start Guide.
When performing the upgrade, keep in mind that the components of the earlier version may not work in conjunction with the components you have upgraded. To ensure smooth upgrade to the new version, you should first upgrade the Administration Service and then upgrade the client components (Console and Web Interface).
Custom solutions (scripts or other modifications) that rely on the functions of Active Roles may fail to work after an upgrade due to compatibility issues. Prior to attempting an upgrade, you should test your existing solutions with the new version of the product in a lab environment to verify that the solutions continue to work.
