In most XperienCentral deployments, a number of the properties in the various configuration files are customized for each specific environment. During an upgrade, these files should not be overwritten. Instead, you should perform a diff to determine what the differences are between the files delivered by GX Software and those already present in your customized environment. In some releases, new properties are introduced which you must pick up in your configuration file(s). If no new properties have been introduced in a configuration file between releases, you can use it in the upgraded version as is.
