Compatibility: It is strongly recommended that you test the upgrade on a development or test environment first. If you are upgrading from v3, please note that there have been security hardening changes since v4 so please refer to v4 Compatibility. Licensing: For the Enterprise Edition, upgrades between major versions (e.g. v5 to v6) requires re-activation with a new license, so users with an active Enterprise Software Subscription are required to request for a new license. IMPORTANT: Starting from v6.0.15, JAVA 8 is required due to fixes for vulnerability issues of a dependent library. |
