upgrade order of components

  • I am upgrade a SQL server 2019 instance, it has both DB engine, SSIS service , SSRS service in same server due to it only host a small application.

    Now I would like to upgrade it from 2019 to 2022 and CU11,  My question is about the order,

    My order is like this, simplified:

    1. upgrade DB engine and SSIS to 2022.   2. then apply CU11.   3. install 2022 SSRS and reconfigure it

    Or should I do 3 first, then 2.

    Or it does not matter.

    Thanks

  • Thanks for posting your issue and hopefully someone will answer soon.

    This is an automated bump to increase visibility of your question.

  • the SQL2022 CU11 patch potentially covers SSRS and SSAS as well. as a result, I would recommend the following:

    1. if you use UNC paths for your backup directory, you must change it to a local directory
    2. i change mine from \\domainserver\SQLBackups to whatever is the data directory for the duration of the upgrade, then change it back.
    3. in place upgrade of SQL2019 to SQL2022
    4. install SSRS 2022
    5. Run the patch for CU11

  • but do investigate all performance issues with 2022 before upgrading - many reporting 20 to 40% slower queries.
