Upgrading
When upgrading the TrueSight Cloud Cost Control product, BMC recommends that you follow the upgrade order:
Upgrade the shared architectural components of TrueSight Capacity Optimization . For more information, see Upgrading to TrueSight Capacity Optimization 11.3.01
If you want the Overallocated-VM-recommendation and migration simulation results to be based on Balanced or Conservative optimization behavior, you must install or upgrade to Capacity Agent version 11.3.01.- Update the Cloud Cost Control package.
- (Optional) To recover the AWS reserved instances data from the past months, trigger the historical recovery. For more information, see To recover the historical AWS data .
Starting with version 11.3.01, TrueSight Cloud Cost Control imports data for AWS reserved instances. Data collection begins after you upgrade the product. You must perform this step only if you want to import the historical AWS reserved instances data.
Before attempting alternate upgrade processes, contact BMC Customer Support.
