Update Devin Server

Before updating Devin Server

The update process usually takes 1-2 minutes, during which only Devin Server will be unavailable. FileMaker Server, hosted fmp12 files, and other services will remain unaffected. To update Devin Server on your Development Server, ensure no team members are using the Devin App.

Prerequisites

• Admin Credentials: Ensure you have the username and password for the FileMaker Server.

• Administrative Access: You must be able to run scripts as an admin on the server.

• Internet Connection: The server needs internet access to download the update.

Considerations

1. No Ongoing Migrations: Confirm no FileMaker migrations are active or scheduled.

2. Disconnect Clients: Ensure there are no active connections to devin-engine.fmp12. Clients will be forced to disconnect if not.

3. Choose Release Channel: Decide whether to update using the beta or public release channel.
