Install Solman using the latest export downloads(SPS 13)

[Former Member]

Hi,

I am trying to install solman, but instead of the using the export media which are SPS04, I would like to use the latest export media (SPS 13)which are also available for downloads.

Is there anything special i need to do for that ? The media guide points to SPS04, so i am expecting that the installer 70SWPM will reject SPS13.

(Background - solman 7.1 SR1 is already isntalled, with SPS04, but instead of upgrading it, i am looking at ways to reinstall it with the new media with sps13 content.

Any advice will be much appreciated.

Regards

Anamika

Hi Anamika,

There is not at this time any installation media for SolMan 7.1 that takes you straight to sps13 during the initial install. You have to install with the SR1 media which, as you pointed out, starts you out with sps4, and then you need to apply sps13 with SUM. It's not an upgrade, it's an sps update, and it is how you get there.

You're correct that 70SWPM will not utilize the sps13 media. You use SUM to apply sps13.

Cheers,

Matt
