Prepare for an Apteco update

To fully prepare for an Apteco software update:

1. Review the technical updates section for any configuration changes you need to make manually.

2. Inform users of planned downtime. Allow approx. two hours for an update, and perhaps slightly longer if you:

   • Have a multi-server solution

   • Are using PeopleStage

   • Need to make additional changes from previous interim releases

3. Download and extract your software installation files from the software releases page on the Apteco portal to create the appropriate installation folders.

4. Stop all your FastStats Services.

   To do this:

   1. Open the FastStats Configurator.

   2. Click FastStats Services.

   3. Highlight all services, then click Stop.

      

5. Quit all Apteco software.

You are now prepared for an Apteco software update.
