Upgrade Overview

Aras 3D Visualization consists of multiple components that can be upgraded with the standard Aras tools following different scenarios.

As the Aras 3DV upgrade modifies the Aras Innovator code tree, Conversion Server, and database, they must be backed up before the upgrade for their revert in an upgrade failure case.

Aras Innovator will be down during the upgrade.

It is always recommended to test the Aras 3DV upgrade procedure on a non-production Aras Innovator instance before running this procedure on a production system.

If the Dynamic 3D Viewer has not been installed with an older version, it can be installed with the new version during the upgrade.

The Streaming 3D Viewer can be installed during the upgrade. See Automated Aras 3DV Installation for Streaming Viewer section in the Aras 3D Visualization 35 - Installation Guide for more information.
