   Hi Steve,
   The Patching instructions are not clear. I have a SP WFM production farm with 3 servers. We have below questions.

   Do we need to leave the servers from the Workflow Manager Farm before applying the binaries?
   If leaving the servers from the farm is not required, then do we need to STOP the Workflow Manager Fam/host & Service Bus farm/host before applying the patch and in what order.
   If none of the above steps required and we just need to apply the Binary and reboot the server, can we apply the binaries on all servers at a time and reboot (or) do we need to apply on one server only at a time. What’s the order of the patch we need to follow (Leaf node to parent node)
   For the “Upgrade Workflow Manager Farm” wizard, do we need to run it only on the parent node (or) all servers in the farm?

   Thanks,
   Karthikeyan P

   Hi Stefan,

   Hope you’re doing well! 😊

   I just wanted to check with you—what is the KB number for the last SharePoint Workflow Manager update? Also, can you confirm if it needs to be installed on all Workflow servers?

   Thanks in advance!

   Best Regards,
   Chandu

   Hello Stefan,

   thank you for the update.
   Can you please advise on the following matter? After installing the Workflow manager and creating the farm is it possible to move the databases of the Workflow manager to another Server and rename them? So is it possible to change the default database names in the workflow manager configuration? I could not find any guidence for this online, i hope you can give me some advice.
   Thank you

      Hi Marvin,
      sorry – I do not have the answer for your question. That would require some research.
      If this is an important topic for you, I would recommend to open a support ticket with Microsoft.
