Upgrade
BlackBerry UEM
 version 12.17 and later to
BlackBerry UEM
 version 12.19

  • If you are upgrading multiple instances of
    BlackBerry UEM
    , see Upgrade a domain that consists of multiple instances of BlackBerry UEM.
  • When you extract the setup files, ensure that they are not saved to the
    UEM
     software installation directory (by default, C:\Program Files\BlackBerry\UEM). During an upgrade, the setup application removes the contents of the
    UEM
     software directory, including its own installation files.
  • It is a best practice to take a manual backup of the
    UEM
     database before you upgrade in case the account that you use for database authentication does not have enough permissions to perform a database backup.
  • If you are upgrading your environment in stages, test your environment after each stage of the upgrade to make sure everything is working as expected. If it is not, resolve any issues before proceeding to the next stage of the upgrade.
  • After you run the
    UEM
     setup application, it may display a warning that a restart is required. Restart the computer to ensure that the software is updated.
  1. Log in to the computer using the service account that runs the
    UEM
     services.
  2. Copy the
    UEM
     .zip file to the computer and extract the contents to a folder.
    Do not copy used installation files from another computer. You must re-extract the installation files on each computer.

    setup.exe
    .

    Windows

    Microsoft .NET Framework
     4.8 if it is not detected on the computer. If a later version of
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     is already installed, the
    UEM
     setup application does not install
    Microsoft .NET Framework
     4.8.
