Upgrating from Trial version - 11.Aug.2006 8:47:32 AM

What is the correct way to upgrate from Trial version of ISA Server 2004 Standard to non-trial version? Should I deinstall trial version (backing up the whole configuration, of course) and install non-trial? Or is it best to just run the install of non-trial version to allow non-trial version to discover trial version and “upgrade” it?

The question may seems trivial, but I have quite narrow time window to complete the whole operation and just desperately wish to escape any unexpected troubles.

So, share your experience, please.

in this link "Upgrading ISA Server 2004 to ISA Server 2006" you can read the following :

quote:

Note the following:

•

In addition to the product upgrade, ISA Server 2006 also supports a build-to-build upgrade. This allows you to upgrade a beta version of ISA Server 2006 to a new build of the same product. The following build-to-build upgrades will be supported:

•

Beta to Release Candidate

•

Release Candidate to Release to Manufacturing

•

Beta to Release to Manufacturing

•

ISA Server and ISA Server Management console components can be upgraded. All other components, such as SMTP Message Screener and Firewall Client Share, must be uninstalled before upgrading, because these components are no longer supported in ISA Server 2006.

•

During the upgrade, ISA Server services are not operational. We therefore recommend that you disconnect the ISA Server 2006 computer from the External network until the upgrade is complete.
