Worksoft Certify Execution Suite Installation Guide
Upgrading Worksoft Execution Suite v9.0.2 to v9.2
Upgrading Worksoft Execution Suite v9.0.2 to v9.2
To upgrade your Worksoft Execution Suite v9.2, you will need to do the following:

Retrieve your current database information

Update your databases

Uninstall your current Worksoft Execution Suite and services

Install Worksoft Application Server
In the Worksoft Execution Suite v9.2 version, the new Worksoft Application Server installs Worksoft
Management Studio that replaces the Worksoft Certify Connect™ tool. The Worksoft Management Studio tool
registers database settings, data sources, and SAP systems that you intend to use for Worksoft products. You
will convert your Certify Connect database to a Management Studio database.
Retrieving Current Database Information
You will need to retrieve your current database information in order to upgrade your databases.
 To retrieve current database information:
1
To retrieve Certify Impact database information, go to the server where Certify Impact is installed. Open
the web.config file in the following directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Worksoft\Impact
2
Make a note of the Certify Impact database server, database name, and login information in the
Database Connection Strings section of the web.config file.
3
To retrieve Certify Execution Manager database information, go to the server where Certify Execution
Manager is installed. Open the web.config file in the following directory:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Worksoft\ExecutionManager\WebApplication
4
Make a note of the Certify Execution Manager database server, database name, and login information in
the Database Connection Strings section of the web.config file.
5
To retrieve Connect database information, open either the Certify Impact or Certify Execution Manager
web.config file to find the Connect database server, database name, and login information in the
Connect Database Connection Strings section.
Updating Your Execution Suite Databases
Do not delete your Certify Connect database. You will convert the Connect database into a Worksoft
Management Studio database by using the Apply.exe tool from the ManagementStudio folder within the
distribution package.
To update your Connect database, follow the instructions in Chapter 3 “Creating the Worksoft Management
Studio Database.” You will use the Connect database information that you retrieved from the web.config file.
To update your Certify Impact and Certify Execution Manager, also follow the instructions in Chapter 3
“Creating Worksoft Certify Execution Suite Databases.”

Uninstalling Worksoft Execution Suite and Services
Uninstalling Worksoft Execution Suite and Services
If you have the Worksoft Execution Suite, uninstall the suite. If you have installed Certify Impact and Certify
Execution Manager separately, uninstall both products.
If you have integrated IBM® Rational® Quality Manager with Worksoft Certify®, then do not uninstall the
following services. This integration still requires these services. You are able to have the new Worksoft
Management Studio installed with Certify Connect.
If you do not have RQM integrated with Certify, uninstall the following services:

Certify Connect Windows service

Certify Connect web service

Certify Compliance
Installing Worksoft Application Server
After you have updated your databases and uninstalled your previous version, you will need to install the
Worksoft Application Server. For information on how to install the server, see Chapter 4 “Installing Worksoft
Application Server.”

Installing Remote Execution Agents
Installing Remote Execution Agents
In order to user the Worksoft Certify Execution Manager, you will need to install a Certify Remote Execution
Agent on each dedicated machine allocated for remote execution. The Certify Execution Suite Server
communicates with the Agents and sends requests to start executing processes and projects.
In order for the Server to communicate with the Agents, port 4242 must be open.
When installing the Execution Agent, you must have full Administrator rights to the Execution Agent machine.
If you create a Service user for running the Execution Agent in lights-out mode, the Service user must have full
Administrator rights to the machine in order to start the Execution Agent as an Administrator.
 To install a Certify Remote Execution Agent:
1
In your software distribution folder, double-click the Remote Execution Agent.exe file.
The Certify Remote Execution Agent installer opens.
2
Click Next.

Configuring Windows 8 Clients
Certify Remote Execution Agent installation is complete. Repeat this installation process for all of the client
machines that you intend to use with the Execution Manager Server.
The Certify Remote Execution Agent opens and starts running on your client machine. To stop the Agent, click
the Stop button.
The Certify Remote Execution Agent must be running in order for the Execution Manager Server to connect
with the machine that will be executing Certify processes.
To start the Agent, you must run the Agent as an administrator. From the client machine, select Start >
Worksoft Execution Manager Agent > Run As Administrator. The Execution Manager Agent opens and
begins running.
Configuring Windows 8 Clients
The machine where Certify Execution Manager agent is installed needs to be able to respond to pings from the
web server. By default, Windows 8 machines do not allow echo replies because Correct, File, and Print Sharing
is turned off.
You will need to go to the Inbound Rules section in the Advanced Firewall Settings. Enable the rule for ICMPv4
echo requests so the machine can respond to ping requests. For detailed information, see this article.
