End-to-end in-place 2AR upgrade for version 4.6

This topic shows you how to perform a "live" upgrade in your production environment. In this scenario, you do not take your environment off-line during the upgrade.

To be specific, the topic guides you through a Small Deployment 2 AR System server (Enterprise-AR and Cloud-AR) upgrade in the Windows environment from 3.1 to 4.6. Since there are only slight variations between the various deployment types, you can use these instructions, for example, when upgrading Compact or Medium deployments.

This topic includes the following sections:

The installer guides you step-by-step through the upgrade process, including the configuration of dependent products.

Before you begin

To launch the upgrade and pre-analyze the currently installed products.

1. Download the BMC Cloud Lifecycle Management solution, as instructed in Downloading the installation files.
2. Launch the install planner. 
   For detailed instructions, see Launching the upgrade and pre-analyzing the currently installed products.  
3. Pre-analyze your environment. 
   The install planner runs a utility that pre-checks your environment and generates an HTML report that checks your environment and lists recommendations to fix it. If one or more of the target servers fail the pre-analyzer check, you must fix the underlying problems before you can continue with the installation. For detailed instructions, see To upgrade and pre-analyze the installed products.
4. When all the products on the target server have passed the pre-analyzed check, click Next to continue. 
5. When the deployment confirmation panel appears, review the summary of the host settings.

6. Click Next to continue the installation. 
   The Installation Progress panel appears. The installer stages products into the Currently Installing and Upcoming Installs trees.

   Tip

   You can review the current progress of an installation at any time by selecting the product in the Currently Installing tree. Click View Deployment Status to review previous progress

7. Select the first product to upgrade from the Currently Installing tree and click Next.
