ArcGIS Enterprise Upgrade/Installation Order

[KevinHighland]

I’ve found a few different documents and discussions on the correct order and all say to upgrade or install Portal first. In my situation, we are running 10.3.1 Server without Portal installed and will be upgrading to 10.7.1. We will be installing Portal with this upgrade. So we are upgrading Server and installing Portal and Data Store. 

That said, should I take any specific order into consideration? 

Thanks,

Kevin

No need to worry about order when Portal hasn't been installed. Order matters when upgrading the base deployment because Server has dependencies on an upgraded Portal, so Portal must be done first. You can install and configure Portal first, or upgrade Server first, it doesn't matter.

Fantastic. Thanks Jonathan!
