Upgrading Studio Modeling Platform

This topic describes how to upgrade Studio Modeling Platform from one version to a higher version. After the software is upgraded, the database schema must also be upgraded. To upgrade Studio Modeling Platform:

  1. Install the new Studio Modeling Platform software version in an empty directory.
  2. Set the connection (bootstrap) file to point to the previous database by copying the MATRIX-R file from the previous directory (ENOVIA_INSTALL on Windows or ENOVIAHOME on Unix) and pasting it in the new location.

    Note: Since the two versions use the same database, their connection files are the same. For example: 
    MATRIX-R
Username=MATRIXV5
Password==5x626ud8v4M=
ConnectString= SQE11GKERN
Driver=Oracle/OCI80
EncryptionVersion=10

  3. Upgrade the database schema.
  4. Configure the environment settings. You can copy settings from the previous version to the new version. See 3DSpace Service Administration Guide > Configuring 3DSpace > 3DSpace Settings for details.
