Upgrade

Description

This is the first operation that must be invoked during an ArcGIS Server upgrade. Once the new software version has been installed and the setup has completed, the upgrade operation will be available. A successful run of this operation will complete the upgrade of ArcGIS Server. This operation is available only when a server machine is currently being upgraded. It will not be available after a successful upgrade of a server machine.

Caution:

If errors are returned with the upgrade operation, you must address the errors before you continue. For example, if you encounter an error about an invalid license, you must re-authorize the software using a valid license before running this operation again.
