If PLA version 8.0 or later is already installed on the Prinergy Workflow primary server, you can upgrade the software. This preserves existing ShopMap, marks, layout tickets, and other configuration files. The upgrade files are available from Partner Place at https://partnerplace.kodak.com/. 

Note: If you are running a version earlier than 8.0, upgrade to 8.0 first. If your system does not meet this requirement, or if you need assistance upgrading to PLA 11.0, contact your local service representative.

Reminder for MIS users: When schema updates occur, please review and modify the MIS program to output XML that conforms to the latest PLA schema. Kodak does not provide programming services for specific MIS systems.

1. Log on to Partner Place.
2. On the Partner Place home page, select Service & Support > Prepress Software Downloads.
3. In the Search box, type PLA downloads and click Search.
4. From the search results, select the downloads page for your Prinergy Workflow version (for example, PLA 11.0 downloads if your Prinergy Workflow version is 11.0).
5. On the PLA Workflow downloads page, scroll to PLA 11.0 and download the compressed (.zip) PLA upgrade file to the Prinergy Workflow primary server.
6. Extract the upgrade file to the Prinergy Workflow primary server. It contains the following files:
   • Layout Automation Manager.app (the icons appears as a Windows directory)
   • PLAAutoUpdateApp.app (the icons appears as a Windows directory)
   • LayoutAutomationClientSetup.exe
   • PLAAutoupgradeApp.exe
   • LayoutAutomation 11.0.x Installer.exe
   • LayoutAutomation 11.0.x Updater.exe
   • PLASubService 11.0.x Installer.exe
     Important: Do not remove LayoutAutomation 11.0.x Installer.exe from the installation directory. All of these files must be located in the same folder. If they are not found at the same level, the installation will not complete successfully.
7. Use Prinergy Administrator to stop the Prinergy Workflow software.
8. Shut down and restart the Prinergy Server.
   Note: In some cases, certain processes such as the RBA Daemon do not stop completely if you only stop Prinergy. It is recommended that you shut down and restart the Prinergy Server to make sure that all the executables that the updater needs to replace are stopped. Once the server has restarted, confirm the Oracle Services have started. You are then ready to proceed with the update of PLA.
   
9. Double-click LayoutAutomation 11.0.x Updater.exe to start the upgrade, and then follow the prompts.
10. When prompted, accept all existing defaults to preserve the paths used in the original installation.
    Note: You can ignore the following warning message if it appears: Failed to create share LayoutAutomationTemp. This shared folder was created by the original installation, and is typically locked by the system so that it cannot be overwritten.

11. If you currently use any of the Kodak Plate Control Strip marks in your PLA layouts, on your Prinergy server:

    1. Browse to C:\Program Files (x86)\Kodak\LayoutAutomation\server\WEB-INF\classes 

    2. Using a text editor, open the DefaultUser.properties file. 

    3. Add Mediator.UseNative=false

    4. Save and close the file.

12. Use Prinergy Administrator to restart the Prinergy Workflow software

如果印能捷工作流程主服务器上已安装 PLA 版本 8.0 或更高版本，则您可以升级该软件。这样可以保留现有的 ShopMap、标记、版式传票和其他配置文件。可以通过 Partner Place 获取升级文件，网址为：https://partnerplace.kodak.com/。 

注意：如果运行的版本早于 8.0，请首先升级至 8.0。如果您的系统不满足此要求，或者您在升级到 PLA 8.4 时需要帮助，请与当地的服务代表联系。

MIS 用户提醒：当发生模式更新时，请检查并修改 MIS 程序以输出符合最新 PLA 模式的 XML。Kodak 不针对特定 MIS 系统提供编程服务。
