Executing a silent upgrade

To launch the silent upgrade, you use the same command for all platform components. The options file controls which component is upgraded and its properties.

You execute silent upgrades from the command line and you are not prompted for input. On Red Hat Linux operating system, you can output debug logging to the console window by exporting LAX_DEBUG=true.

Before you begin

You must have an options file that specifies the components to upgrade and where to upgrade them.

Important

  • Check the Release-notes-and-notices area for information about service packs, patches, and content versions that are available for TrueSight Orchestration.
  • Review the information in Preparing-for-upgrade and ensure that you have performed required pre-upgrade steps.

To execute a silent upgrade

  1. Navigate to the directory that contains the silent installation program.

  2. From the command line, execute one of the following commands to start the silent installation program. 
    When you specify the options file name, specify the full path to the options file, not a path that is relative to the installation program. 
    Type the command carefully. If you type the command incorrectly, you might invoke an installation mode that is unsupported.
