I am trying to update CR 2013 from SP2 to SP5. Can i just run the SP5 update without stopping any services or servers? Is it a straight update without any downtime?
Thanks Danis & Ambarish. I will follow the guides.
One last thing. If we upgrade to from patch 2 - 5. Can we directly move to patch 5 instead of doing it in sequence from 2,3,4,5. Also, SP upgrade can we move directly to the latest version and by pass any older SP. Like from SP2 to directly SP5.

Say, if i just did a fresh install of CR Server 2013 no user, data and all and now updating it to SP5. Is it still required to shutdown all those services?

- Login to Central Management Console with administrator account
- Go to Server category
- Expand Server list
- Stop all the servers except for Central Management Server (CMS), Input File Repository Server (IFRS) and Output File Repository Server (OFRS)
As far as Tomcat is concerned, go to Central Configuration Manager (CCM) and you shall find tomcat listed. Stop Tomcat.
Hope it helps.

Based on your questions, you do not have basic knowledge of this product, so patching it right now might be a very dangerous endeavor for you.
Please review Admin and Upgrade guides first and get familiar with Product components and architecture before attempting this.

Hi Jawahar & Ajay, Thanks for your responses. -Jawahar, You recommeded to stop all services and FRS But Ajay suggests the patches will bring it down as needed. I am little confused. Can you all please explain little bit more in details?

Hi,
It recommended to Shutdown all services except the CMS, FRS and Tomcat while patching.
Please refer the below KBA that will give you a clear idea of the process:

When you upgrade the CR Server you will need to have Server & Tomcat running. The install will ask you to log into the CMS and do the upgrade automatically. The patch will bring down the services and then bring them back-up after properly upgraded.

Ajay

When ever you apply a patch or SP update, you need to stop all the services except CMS and FRS. Tomcat also should be down.
