Additional Notes: Upgrade the agent and ART to version 8.1.4.6 to obtain the RFE and improvements that are included in this release. Important: If you are upgrading the ART from version 8.1.4 to 8.1.4.6, you must upgrade the ART component first, before you upgrade the agent. Important: If you are currently using ART version 8.1.4.2 or 8.1.4.3, to upgrade to version 8.1.4.6, you cannot use the IBM Installation Manager Update option to upgrade. You must uninstall the previous version of ART. After you uninstall the previous version, the data in the installation directory remains. Do not delete this directory. When you install version 8.1.4.6, the installer migrates the data from the old installation directory into the new installation directory. Ensure that you select the option to migrate data from the old installation location during the installation. See the Upgrading section of the IBM Knowledge Center. However, if you are currently using ART version 8.1.4.4 or later, you can upgrade to version 8.1.4.6 using the IBM Installation Manager Update option. If the 8.1.4 agent is configured with ART, when you upgrade to 8.1.4.6, the tool shows the reporting status as Not Running. When you select Start reporting for the first time, the log file conversion process begins. Depending on the size of your server log file, it can take time for the initial conversion of the data. The system must convert the data in the entire log to the required format. Data backup and upgradeWhen you upgrade from version 8.1.4.4 or later, the installer automatically creates a backup of your license usage data. However, if you prefer to create your own backup, copy this directory: RLKSAdmin/server/conf/lqe. Hardware requirementsRational License Key Server Administration and Reporting Tool:
