Upgrading an HA pair

To upgrade the ICPAM client on an HA pair:

Step 1  Stop the Standby server.

Step 2  Stop the Active server.

Step 3  Upgrade the active server. 

Ensure that the Gateways are connected, upgraded to 1.5.3 or later, and online.

Step 4  Start the active server.

Step 5  Download the new ICPAM client and launch.

Verify the events accumulated on the Gateways through trace/webapp logs before launching client, since the load might be heavy (particularly if the upgrade is performed during working hours or the gateways were isolated a long time for debugging).

Step 6  Ensure that the controllers are connected.

Step 7  Upgrade the Standby server or deploy a new VM for the Standby server with same MAC Address as the previous version.

Step 8  Start the standby server and let the active and standby sync up.

Standby server can be used instead by creating a new VM.
