This release works concurrently with the previous version of COBOL Server, so you do not need to uninstall it.
Install the latest version in a different location and set the environment to point to it. To do this, run the COBOL Server installer with the –installlocation option:
./InstallFile -installlocation="/opt/microfocus/VisualCOBOL"
-installlocation="/home/myid/installdir"
-installlocation="$HOME/installdir"
. <product-install-dir>/bin/cobsetenv
