You can upgrade SQLsafe Freeware Edition to SQLsafe Lite 6.x by running the SQLsafe setup program on the target SQL Server computer and selecting Agent Only Install.

The first time you perform a backup using SQLsafe Lite, the tool will generate a trial license. To install and activate your production license, click Idera > SQLsafe Lite > Activate License on the Start menu.

Upgrade SQLsafe Freeware Edition to SQLsafe

To upgrade from SQLsafe Freeware Edition to SQLsafe 6.x, first perform a full installation of SQLsafe, and then Upgrade the Lite or Freeware Edition through the Management Console.

If you install SQLsafe on the same computer as your existing SQLsafe Freeware Edition , the corresponding Backup Agent will be automatically upgraded as part of this installation.

After installation, apply your new SQLsafe 6.x production license by clicking Manage License on the Tools menu in the Management Console.
