Preserving the configuration file
Upgrading the
Rational® Test Virtualization
Server or Rational® Integration Tester Agent software or uninstalling an
older version to move to a newer version (when the upgrade is not applicable) overwrites the
existing Agent.config
file. If there are settings in the
Agent.config
file that must be preserved, for example, IBM®
Rational® Test Control
Panel domains and environments
settings, copy the existing Agent.config
file to a temporary location
before upgrading. After the upgrade or uninstallation of the software has completed,
overwrite the new Agent.config
file with the old
Agent.config
file.
