Updating and upgrading SystoLOCK is a straightforward and easy experience.
First, obtain the binaries from https://systola.com/downloads/systolock (protected resource) and copy the installation files to the respective computers. Update the server components first, then proceed with management tools, followed by Windows clients and other components.
Please note that starting with version 2.4, the management console will be "talking" to the server over a new TCP port 21573. All other components continue to use port 21572.
Older clients will work with newer servers and, if you run the recommended configuration of multiple SystoLOCK instances, you can proceed with rolling server upgrades without downtime for your users.
The server component needs to be uninstalled first and then installed again. The installer will save most settings needed to be preserved between these steps.
You will also need to uninstall Systola.SystoLock.AdcsSetup and Systola.SystoLock.Management packages as their funtionality is now fully covered by the serber installer.
