Below is the exact order for the upgrade version:

Step 1 - Upgrade your Univiewer Console (Standalone / Webconsole / Webstart)
Step 2 - Upgrade your Univiewer Management Server
Step 3 - Upgrade (if installed) Reporter and Dollar Universe Explorer
Step 4 - Upgrade your Dollar Universe

Example, if you want to Upgrade your Dollar Universe with the version 6.9.21:

Step 1 - Upgrade your Console (Standalone / Webconsole / Webstart) with the version 6.9.21 ( or more recent )
Step 2 - Upgrade your Univiewer Server with the version 6.9.21 (or more recent )
Step 3 - Upgrade your Reporter Server / Dollar Universe Explorer with the version 6.9.21 (or more recent )
Step 4 - Upgrade your Dollar Universe (DUAS) with the version 6.9.21.

Additional Information

The Golden Rule for the versions of the different components is the following:

UVC >= UVMS >= Reporter / DU Explorer >= DUAS Nodes 

Example:
UVC: 6.9.21
UVMS: 6.9.21
Reporter: 6.9.21
DU Explorer:  6.9.21
DUAS nodes: some on version 6.9.01, some others on version 6.7.41, and the rest on 6.9.21 maximum

If you want to upgrade or install a DUAS Node in version 6.10.91, then you should first upgrade UVC/UVMS/Reporter/ DU Explorer to that same version

EXCEPTION: When you upgrade UVC to v6.10.101 or higher you also have to upgrade UVMS to v6.10.101 or higher; see comments in the v6.10.101 Compatibility Matrix:
