Issue
Installation of the ACE/Server on same box with an older version present.
Resolution
The installation can be performed in a new directory to eliminate the need for backup prior to the installation.

1. Copy the license.rec,server.key,server.cer,sdti.cer to the temp location.
2. Install the new version in a new location.
3. Once installed, they can change who starts by changing the /etc/sdace.txt

Example:  /opt/ace/data/sdace.txt        /ace5/ace/data/sdace.txt
# rm /etc/sdace.txt
# ln -s /ace5/ace/data/sdace.txt /etc/sdace.txt

# This example would modify the location of the symbolic link for the sdace.txg file.
You could now start the ACE/Server 5.0 up rather than the older version.
