Windows update of XTRF 10

This document is intended for Server Administrators with sufficient technical skills. 

This guide explains the procedure for updating XTRF 10 on Windows Server OS.

The instructions differ slightly depending on your current operating system.

Please note that installing XTRF on the Windows Server has been deprecated. It will no longer be available with XTRF 11. Please review your options for migrating to a different, supported hosting platform.

  1. Ensure that your server meets the requirements listed in the following article: Server requirements.

  2. Download the jboss-xtrf-full-10.x.y.zip file from XTRF Self-Service Manager.

  3. Stop all XTRF services from services.msc.

  4. A VM snapshot is recommended, and a database backup is strongly recommended. Please follow the instructions in the link: Database backup.

  5. Rename the C:\jboss-xtrf\ folder to C:\jboss-xtrf_OLD_yyyy-mm-dd.

  6. Extract the downloaded archive to C:\jboss-xtrf\, so you have C:\jboss-xtrf\bin subdirectory. Ensure that the new JBoss folder location matches the previous setup..

  7. Copy the following file (xtrfDatabaseConfig.xml) from the old JBoss directory (C:\jboss-xtrf_OLD_yyyy-mm-dd\standalone\configuration) to the new, unzipped jboss-xtrf folder (C:\jboss-xtrf\standalone\configuration)

  8. If necessary, adjust the local configuration C:\jboss-xtrf\bin\standalone.local.bat, based on the previous version.

  9. Run as administator the install-windows-service.bat  in C:\jboss-xtrf\bin to create and update XTRF services.
    Starting with 9.3, this step is critical.

  10. Copy all custom applications (*.war) from the old standalone/custom-deployments/ to a new Tomcat directory.

  11. Start all XTRF services via services.msc. Note that this may include newly created services.
