You can upgrade 3WXM by installing a newer version of 3WXM over a
previous version. You do not need to uninstall the previous version before
installing a newer version. Before you upgrade, 3Com recommends that
you make a backup of the config-db directory in the 3WXM installation
directory. As a best practice, back up the config-db directory on a regular
basis to ensure that you have copies of your network plans.
CAUTION: If you uninstall a previous version of 3WXM before
upgrading, make sure you note the serial number and license key from
the License Information dialog box, which you access by selecting
Help>Licensing from the main 3WXM window.
You can also save a copy of the license information by starting 3WXM
and clicking Save in the License Information dialog box.
You uninstall 3WXM by using its Uninstall wizard. Access the Uninstall
wizard from the 3Com program list in the Windows Start menu or the
Control Panel.
To uninstall 3WXM on Windows systems:
1 Access the Windows Control Panel, and select Add or Remove Programs.
