Upgrade
There are different ways to upgrade your ESET PROTECT Server and other ESET PROTECT components. See also migration and reinstallation procedures.
Ensure you have a supported operating system before upgrading to ESET PROTECT On-Prem 11.1. We recommend that you back up the ESET PROTECT database before upgrading. If you have an earlier unsupported database installed (MySQL 5.5 or Microsoft SQL 2008/2012), upgrade your database to a compatible database version before upgrading the ESET PROTECT Server. |

You can upgrade to ESET PROTECT On-Prem 11.1 from ESET PROTECT On-Prem 9.0 and later. A direct upgrade from the End of Life versions 7.2–8.x has not been tested and is not supported.
