Hello;
We are on Update 5 and looking to update our applications to Update 7 and/or some specific Xe Baseline ESUs that are required to apply newer "baseline-ESU dependant" ESUs for certain applications.
We have a question concerning technology surrounding Baseline ESUs and Updates, and the best practice to install them.
4 Scenarios.
What is the best practice with regards to installing the latest Xe Baseline ESUs and Updates? Which one should we apply first?
1. Install Update 7 first, then Baseline ESUs on top?
We would like to install Update 7 but then; do we need to install the Baseline ESUs on top of that? Probably, but sounds like lots of work.
OR
2. Install Baseline ESUs first, then Update 7 on top?
Is it better to install the Baseline ESUs to the modules (SOE, Procurement etc) to the areas we use, then install the update on top?
I think the Baseline ESUs are more up-to-date than the Update 7.
OR
3. Install Baseline ESUs only.
Is it perhaps better to install the Baseline ESUs to the modules (SOE, Procurement etc) only and NOT install the Update 7 on top? ie by installing the Baseline ESUs we already get the Update 7 modifications + all the latest fixes to the specific errors we want to solve..
OR
4. Install Update 7 only.
The exact opposite to 3. Installing the Update 7 only. But my understanding is that we will miss out on Baseline ESU functionality (and therefore this becomes scenario 1 to correct the problem)
It feels like a bit of a "chicken versus the egg" problem, but doing things in the right order and avoiding extra/duplicating work is the main idea.
I hope you understand the scenarios. We are just looking for some guidance.
Thanks a $$$ in advance,
/Philip
