Environment

Component: SPCOCK - Spectrum OneClick

Cause

The webswing configuration is not preserved during upgrades.

 

Resolution

The upgrade was designed this way, so we will address the design by ER. This ER is being tracked by DE525850.

 

Additional Information

This can happen on any upgrade if customizations were made to the above files.  The most common change is to the webapp port numbers but can also be client memory or the below change for a load balancer configuration.
