BACKUP SUGGESTIONS:
The update does not provide an automatic rollback mechanism to 'undo'
the update.
Installers that anticipate a need to revert to the previously installed
version must make a backup copy of the entire %UGII_BASE_DIR% folder
tree before doing the update.
If it is necessary to go back to the old version, simply replace the
updated %UGII_BASE_DIR% folder with the backup copy.

UPDATE INSTRUCTIONS:
This media contains Maintenance Release files provided as replacements
for previously installed NX 9.0 products.
The Base release for this maintenance release is a prerequisite to
installing this update. e.g. Version XX.Y must be installed before
updating to Version XX.Y.Z
Several methods are provided to perform the update:
1. Autoplay the DVD then select 'Install UGS Update'.
2. Or, run the DVD 'launch.exe' program then select 'Install UGS Update'.
3. Or, change dir to the ugs_updateXXXX folder then run 'run_ugsupdate.exe'.
The above methods will all run 'run_ugsupdate.exe'. It will read the correct
%UGII_BASE_DIR% from the Registry and apply the update to the NX 9.0 folder.
4. OR, you may follow the instructions below to run ugs_update.bat directly.
Change directory to the 'ugs_updateXXXX' folder, check that UGII_BASE_DIR is
set to the installed NX 9.0 folder, then execute the 'ugs_update.bat' script.
e.g. cd ugs_updateXXXX
ugs_update.bat /v
The use of UNC pathnames (e.g. \serverpath) is supported by both
ugs_update.bat and run_ugsupdate.exe.
The script supports a "/v" switch to turn on verbose messages while doing the
file updates. The default operation of the script is non-verbose.
The script supports a "/d" switch. This will turn off the script
confirmation prompts. Useful for running the update in a batch job.
The script also supports a "/p" switch. This will turn off the initial
confirmation prompt but it will display the final 'done' prompt. This is useful
for running the update in a batch job where a final prompt is desired.
NOTE: Before running the ugs_update script, please make sure that the
environment variable %UGII_BASE_DIR% is set to the base directory of
the NX 9 release.
e.g: set UGII_BASE_DIR="C:Program FilesSiemensNX 9.0"
Or set the variable to the appropriate installed folder on your system.
SILENT UPDATES: Advanced users may use standard DOS output redirection to
install the update silently with no screen displays, except on errors.
For example, to turn off all output:
e.g: ugs_update /d >NUL 2>&1
- or -
run_ugsupdate.exe >NUL 2>&1
Caution: you MUST the change "switches" settings in run_ugsupdate.ini to "/d"
To redirect the output to a log file. (Recommended)
e.g: ugs_update /d >c:tempupdate_log.txt 2>&1
- or -
run_ugsupdate.exe >c:tempupdate_log.txt 2>&1
