Install node manager

The first step in upgrading the node manager using the upgrade tool is to install new node managers on the same computers as the old node managers.

You can install a node manager either interactively with a graphical interface or silently by using the command line.

For the interactive installation on Windows, see Installing a node manager interactively during upgrade.
For the silent installation, see Installing a node manager silently. Then see Running the node manager upgrade tool silently
For installation on Linux, see Installing a node manager (RPM Linux) or Installing a node manager (tarball Linux).
Note: You must run the /configure command after installing a node manager on Linux.

Note: Configure the node managers to use the same ports as the previous installation. This will not cause a port conflict if you have followed steps 1 and 2 in Upgrading Spotfire.

Important: Do not start the newly installed node manager before running the upgrade tool.

Once the new node managers are installed, you can continue to Run the node manager upgrade tool.
