It does not matter how you upgrade Tomcat as long as you keep it within the recommended main version. I have never had a problem with Tomcat or any other web server for that matter being upgraded at a patch level that I can recall.
Just make sure that you stay within the recommended main versions of required Java Runtime and you should be fine. Going anywhere outside the bounds of the main versions for supporting technologies like the database, internet server, Java Runtime is usually at your own risk although even that works some of the time.

We've been asked to upgrade tomcat to ensure we have the right security patches. Full configuration listed below, but basically we're on Mid Tier Version 8.1.SP02 Patch 001 201505281150 Hotfix Web Server Information Apache Tomcat/7.0.53 So we're looking to upgrade to Tomcat 7.0.69 with minimal disruption to the users. Do you know how to go about this? Or if we upgrade to mid-tier version 9 (staying at app server version 8.1) would that upgrade tomcat for us in a more remedy-friendly way? Thanks!
