How to install the new version?

Use the installers to install the new version. Best practice is to use a new folder for the installation and integrate the version of inspectIT into the folder name.

Necessary adaptions

All agent configuration files need to be updated as the sesnor type info.novatec.inspectit.agent.sensor.method.jdbc.ConnectionMetaDataSensor has been removed. Note that the database inforamation will still be available, but will be collected with Connection sensor. Please remove all the lines from the configuration that define or use mentioned sensor:
```
# inspectit-agent.cfg
method-sensor-type jdbc-connection-meta-data info.novatec.inspectit.agent.sensor.method.jdbc.ConnectionMetaDataSensor MIN
 
# commons/sql.cfg
sensor jdbc-connection-meta-data java.sql.Connection <init> interface=true
sensor jdbc-connection-meta-data weblogic.jdbc.wrapper.Connection <init> interface=true
```

Things that will not work anymore

Old agent configurations
Databases created with older version can not be used with new version.
