Upgrading Enterprise Connector from an earlier version

The Infor Cloud team can update ION CE to a later version. After such an update, the Enterprise Connector version in the ION Enterprise Location page is red. This indicates a later version is available for you. For details on what this newer version offers, see the ION CE release notes.

Follow this procedure to update your installed version Enterprise Connector to a later version. During the upgrade, the integration between ION CE and the connection points for this location is down. You must run the Enterprise Connector upgrade at one of the Enterprise Connector hosts.

  1. In ION, select Connect > Enterprise Locations.
  2. Click the Download Enterprise Connector icon and save the com.infor.ion.cloud. enterprise. connector.installer-<version>.jar file.
  3. Copy the jar file to the system where the Enterprise Connector must be upgraded. If you have scaled out the Enterprise Connector, select one of the hosts.
  4. Start the installation by double-clicking the jar file.

    Alternatively, run this command:

    Java -jar com.infor.ion.cloud.enterprise.connector.installer-<version>. jar

    For Windows, you must run this command ‘as Administrator’.

  5. During the upgrade, you must specify this information:
    • The Grid installation directory.

      Default: C:\Program Files\Infor\IONEnterprise Connector

      Select the installation folder of the current Enterprise Connector.

    • The JDK path.

      Specify the JDK used currently.

      If you also need to change the JDK version, see Updating the JDK version.

    • ION Runtime Database Password.
