Informatica services versions require that you upgrade the application services. When you upgrade an application service, you must also upgrade the dependent services. When you upgrade an application service, the upgrade process upgrades the database contents of the databases associated with the service.

Use the service upgrade wizard, the actions menu of each service, or the command line to upgrade application services. The service upgrade wizard upgrades multiple services in the appropriate order and checks for dependencies. If you use the actions menu of each service or the command line to upgrade application services, you must upgrade the application services in the correct order and verify that you upgrade dependent services.

The privileges required to upgrade application services depend on the service.
