Upgrade
|
Platform upgrade complexity depends on the deployment. Upgrades for heavily customized deployments using many advanced features require far more care and planning than an upgrade for a sample evaluation deployment. Make sure you plan and test appropriately before attempting to upgrade a production deployment. |
When upgrading, be aware of the following changes affecting sample deployments:
-
The Amster
.zipfileAmster-7.4.0.zipnow includes a root folder namedamster. -

A new ui-themerealm.json file to enable theming for hosted UI pages.
