Upgrading between major versions

There are a few extra steps to take beyond those outlined in Upgrading an existing installation when upgrading to a new major version line.

• An updated license file needs to be downloaded, and the service restarted.
• All users of client software (CLC Workbenches and the CLC Server Command Line Tools) must upgrade their software. Corresponding and compatible software versions are listed at the bottom of the Latest Improvement listings for a given server version. e.g. for the latest release, this can be found at: http://www.qiagenbioinformatics.com/products/clc-genomics-server/latest-improvements/current-line/.
