Backing Up the Existing Installation

The most important item of this entire upgrade process is to backup your current installation. This gives you the ability to rollback to the existing installation configuration if something goes wrong with the upgrade.

A backup can be performed by simply copying the existing root installation folder to a safe location. By default, the root installation folder is C:\Program Files\DataSplice. This will copy all of the application files. This also backs up specific configuration files that you will want to later copy into the new installation folder to retain some of the critical information you have already configured on the existing setup. By doing this, you can avoid having to recreate these configurations manually in the new installation. These important files will be mentioned in the following Copying Existing Configuration Files and Copying Existing View Files sections.
