The topics describe actions that you can take to mitigate the effect of these changes on your environment. Upgrade Advisor analyzes a report server installation. If only client components are installed (for example, if Report Designer is the only [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] component installed on the computer), no issues will be reported. Depending on how you configured your installation, you may encounter additional issues that are not reported by Upgrade Advisor. These issues do not prevent a [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] upgrade from succeeding, but they may affect how reports and applications run after an upgrade is finished. To learn about these issues, see "Reporting Services Backward Compatibility" in [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] Books Online. If you cannot use Setup to upgrade a [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] installation, you can install a new [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] instance and migrate your existing installation to the new instance. For more information, see "Upgrade and Migrate Reporting Services" in [!INCLUDE[ssNoVersion](../../includes/ssnoversion-md.md)] Books Online, [Upgrade and Migrate Reporting Services](../../reporting-services/install-windows/upgrade-and-migrate-reporting-services.md). The following topics describe known issues that are reported by Upgrade Advisor, and explain how you can modify your existing installation to allow an upgrade to occur. > [!IMPORTANT] > Upgrade Advisor must be installed on the report server to analyze an instance of [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)]. [!INCLUDE[ssRSnoversion](../../includes/ssrsnoversion-md.md)] does not support remote analysis. > > For more information, see [Installing Upgrade Advisor](../../../2014/sql-server/install/installing-upgrade-advisor.md). ## In This Section - [Client certificates on the report server web site (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/client-certificates-on-the-report-server-web-site-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Custom extensions were detected on the report server (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/custom-extensions-were-detected-on-the-report-server-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Custom report items were detected on the report server (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/custom-report-items-were-detected-on-the-report-server-upgrade-advisor.md) - [IIS backward compatibility components were not detected (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/iis-backward-compatibility-components-were-not-detected-upgrade-advisor.md) - [IP address restriction detected (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/ip-address-restriction-detected-upgrade-advisor.md) - [ISAPI filters detected on the report server site (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/isapi-filters-detected-on-the-report-server-site-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Obsolete extensions were detected on the report server computer (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/obsolete-extensions-were-detected-on-the-report-server-computer-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Report server database is not configured (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/report-server-database-is-not-configured-upgrade-advisor.md) - [SQL Server 2005 Report Server Web Service group detected (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/sql-server-2005-report-server-web-service-group-detected-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Virtual directories are unspecified (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/virtual-directories-are-unspecified-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Virtual directory has unsupported authentication method (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/virtual-directory-has-unsupported-authentication-method-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Changes to CPU and memory limits for SQL Server Standard and Enterprise (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/cpu-memory-limits-changes-sql-server-standard-enterprise-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Domain accounts required for SharePoint farm (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/domain-accounts-required-for-sharepoint-farm-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Direct Browsing to Report Server (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/direct-browsing-to-report-server-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Microsoft SharePoint 2007 is Installed (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/microsoft-sharepoint-2007-is-installed-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services SharePoint Shared Service is Installed Side by Side (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/sql-server-reporting-services-sharepoint-shared-service-side-by-side-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Incompatible Database Engine Server Collation (Upgrade Advisor)](../../../2014/sql-server/install/incompatible-database-engine-server-collation-upgrade-advisor.md) - [Other Reporting Services Upgrade Issues](../../../2014/sql-server/install/other-reporting-services-upgrade-issues.md)
