The update will back up your existing DB
Your backup path may be C:\Ajera\Backups Other locations may be different based on installation paths.
This backup hung for us for some odd reason- we decided to install SQL management studio and do the backup inside SMSE 1.3gb database took 3-4 min to fully backup successfully.
Backups will depend on database size and hardware system and may take longer due to your environment.
We recently did a 9.00 to 9.10 and the backup took about 15 minutes using the backup database on tasks menu inside Ajera.
