Overview

To upgrade to SAS Federation Server 4.1, you must perform certain tasks to update your databases and configuration files. There are two options for upgrading to SAS Federation Server 4.1:
  • Migration: Migration is needed only when upgrading from DataFlux Federation Server 2.x to SAS Federation Server 4.1. In this case, use the Migration tasks to update your databases to be compatible with SAS Federation Server 4.1.
  • Promotion: Promotion is the movement of selected content from Federation Server 3.x to SAS Federation Server 4.1 on the same version platform (for example, from 3.1.x to 4.1).
