Impact of different types of update installations
There are three types of update installations:
1. Standard update:
◦ only the Planon software is replaced
◦ no manual post-processing required
2. JDK or Tomcat service pack update:
◦ In addition to replacing the Planon software, the Tomcat / JDK folder is also being replaced by a newly installed Tomcat / JDK folder.
◦ The old folder is not deleted, you can use it as a backup.
◦ Manual configuration for Tomcat / JDK must be reapplied.
3. Major update:
◦ In addition to replacing the Planon software, several changes are also being applied in different libraries, such as a WildFly update.
◦ This is a complete new installation.
◦ The values you entered during the installation are reused.
◦ All manual configuration must be reapplied.
◦ A backup is made by renaming the original "planon" installation folder; a date-time stamp is added to the name. You can use this folder to restore your TMS (Tailor Made Software).
