Upgrading to Control Manager 3.5

When upgrading to Control Manager 3.5, spyware/grayware items are no longer counted as viruses. When upgrading to Control Manager 3.5, all virus logs from previous Control Manager versions will separate the virus count from the spyware/grayware count in the virus logs. This process prolongs the upgrading process significantly. For example, processing 1 million virus logs requires approximately 25 minutes.

The following table lists factors to consider when upgrading to the Standard or Enterprise edition:

Capability	Standard Edition	Enterprise Edition
Upgrade Control Manager 2.5/3.0 servers	Yes	Yes
Retain the reporting functions	No	Yes
Upgrade Trend VCS 1.8x servers	Yes	Yes
Upgrade a Standard edition to Enterprise edition To upgrade from a Standard Edition to an Enterprise Edition, obtain an Enterprise Edition Activation Code (AC), and then reinstall Control Manager (only reinstall: do not uninstall and then reinstall). During installation, enter the new Enterprise Edition AC.	Yes	n/a
Convert an Enterprise edition to Standard edition	n/a	No

Trend Micro recommends that you install Control Manager 3.5 on a separate server, rather than upgrading Trend VCS 1.x or Control Manager 2.5/3.0 to version 3.5. By keeping the original server intact, you can then de-commission the original server in a timely and effective manner.
