Upgrading nodes using the upgrade tool (deprecated)
If deploying the packages or distributions should fail for some reason, you might also try installing the new node managers on the same hosts as the old node managers. Then run the node manager upgrade tool on each new node manager.
Note: The node manager upgrade tool is deprecated and will be removed in a
future release.
Note: Set the
Startup type to
Manual for your existing node managers to prevent
the old installation from starting automatically and causing a port conflict
with the new installation. For instructions, see
Preventing Spotfire Servers and node managers from
starting automatically.
- Stop all node manager services.
- Install the node manager (as described under Node manager installation).
- Run the node manager upgrade tool on all node managers.
