Upgrade an ArcGIS Workflow Manager site on AWS

How you upgrade depends on how you created the ArcGIS Workflow Manager site on Amazon Web Services (AWS).

Before you upgrade

No matter which upgrade method you use, review the following information before you upgrade your deployment:

  • You must obtain a new license file to upgrade to 11.2.
  • Make a backup of the ArcGIS Workflow Manager site before upgrading.
  • You must upgrade the ArcGIS Enterprise portal with which ArcGIS Workflow Manager is federated before upgrading the ArcGIS Workflow Manager site.

Upgrade using manual upgrade procedures

The manual upgrade procedure for an ArcGIS Workflow Manager site on AWS is similar to upgrading one on-premises. Therefore, follow instructions in the ArcGIS Workflow Manager installation guide to upgrade the site. Read the instructions specific to the operating system on your EC2 instances:

Upgrade using a CloudFormation template

If you used an 11.1 deployment CloudFormation template provided by Esri to create an ArcGIS Workflow Manager site, you can use the corresponding 11.2 upgrade template to upgrade it.

The following table lists corresponding deployment and upgrade templates and provides links to instructions for using the upgrade templates.
