Upgrading Content Manager server and Topology Manager
Upgrade the Content Manager server and Topology Manager by running the installer. You can also choose to run an unattended installation from the command line.
Before you begin
Before you upgrade Content Manager server and Topology Manager:
- Stop IIS services to ensure that there are no active connections to the system. If connections to the database remain active, you will receive errors.
- Upgrade your Content Manager databases to Tridion Sites 9.6.
- Log on as an administrator user.
- Ensure that you have system administration information and database details you entered during your initial installation of the Content Manager as you will be prompted to provide these during upgrade.
