Upgrading to newer versions

An existing Scout Enterprise Management Suite installation can be updated to the latest version in just a few steps.

1. Perform a full database backup of your Scout databases.

   For further information on backing up a Local DB, see Performing a backup of SQL LocalDB before installing updates.

2. Download the latest version of the Scout Enterprise Management Suite as a .zip file from our technical myelux.com portal.

3. Unpack the .zip file and provide the installation file on a local hard disk.

4. Run the ScoutInstaller.exe file as administrator.

5. Follow the instructions of the installation Wizard. Select your existing Scout databases.

Depending on the extent of new features, upgrading to a new version might cause longer runtimes when the Scout database is converted.

To upgrade to Scout 15 2204 or later versions, the upgrade base must be Scout 15.2.0 or later. Any older databases cannot be converted and will not be accepted by the installer.
