Upgrading RSCD agents

The following topics provide instructions for upgrading RSCD agents:

Note

  • If you previously installed the agent using a shell-based (.sh) installer, you can upgrade using a native installer for the same platform (.bff for AIX, .rpm for Linux, or .gz for Solaris). However, the opposite is not possible: If you previously installed the agent using a native installer, you cannot upgrade using a shell-based (.sh) installer.
  • If you previously installed a 32-bit Windows agent on a 64-bit platform, you cannot simply upgrade to a 64-bit Windows agent. You must first uninstall the old 32-bit version of the agent before you can successfully install the new 64-bit version.
  • If the Application Server and the RSCD agent are on the same machine, they must be at the same version.
  • Upgrading to a new release can potentially create mismatches between the version of a custom configuration object, an agent, and any model objects that reference custom configuration objects. See Upgrading-custom-configuration-objects.
