{note:title=Notice}For Server Backup 5.2.x, you must upgrade the components in the following order or your backups may fail:
* Data Center Console (if applicable)
* Backup Manager
* Backup Agent
{note}
You may receive email notifications about new version releases of R1Soft software. New versions are improved by bug fixes and new/reworked functionality. All enhancements made to the product are documented in the [Release Notes], where you can find a brief summary of recent changes, enhancements, and bug fixes in a particular software release.
It is assumed that you have a Linux server running Linux Data Center Console of an earlier version and that you used the automatic method to install so that the Server Backup packages repository is already added to the configuration. You can read about how to configure the Server Backup packages repository in [Install Data Center Console on Linux].
{info:title=Note}
To upgrade the Data Center Console, you do *not* need to uninstall the previous version. It is safe to upgrade the Data Center Console on an active, running server. After the upgrade is complete, a reboot is not required. All your licenses, settings, added Backup Managers, etc. will remain unchanged.
