you must use Configuration Manager to
create an upgrade configuration profile. The profile contains deployment,
authentication, and database-connection information.
Be sure that you have available
the Installation and Upgrade Worksheet that was completed during your
planning activities.
- Open your completed Installation and Upgrade
Worksheet file.
Tip: In the worksheet file,
verify that the command is enabled.
To view only Configuration Manager values,
filter by CM: Create Upgrade Profile in the
Installation or Configuration Program column.
- Start the Create Upgrade Configuration Profile wizard by
using one of the following methods:
- Select .
- Click the Create a profile for an upgrade installation icon in the toolbar.
- Complete the configuration screens by referring to the
values in your worksheet.
The wizard screens that are displayed depend
on whether an existing Servers.xml file was found
in the ce_install_path\ContentEngine directory,
where ce_install_path is the location where Content Engine is installed.

that was found in Servers.xml. You must name
the profile and provide a location for the profile. If the Servers.xml file
