This section lists the prerequisites and steps for applying and verifying this patch.

Though every release of Adeptia comes with seamless upgrades and bug-free patches, for customer's complex use cases, we recommend applying the patch in a non-production environment first followed by testing. After the use cases run successfully without any errors or warnings, you can apply the patch in the production environment.

Prerequisites

You have Read and Write permissions on all sub-folders and files of .../AdeptiaConnect-<Version>.
Services such as Kernel, WebRunner, and AIMap are stopped.
Take backup of securityContext.xml file from …<ConnectServerInstallFolder>\AdeptiaServer\ServerKernel\etc\saml location. This backup file will help you replicate the manual changes in case you have done earlier in the securityContext.xml file before applying this patch.
Take backup of export.xml and connect_export.xml files from …<ConnectServerInstallFolder>\AdeptiaServer\ServerKernel\MigrationUtility location. These backup files will help you replicate the manual changes in case you have done earlier in these files before applying this patch.
No process flow or transaction should be in running, waiting or queued state.
Ensure that you have followed the Prerequisites' instructions given on the Upgrade page.
