Upgrading BMC Helix IT Operations Management from version 24.2 to 24.3


Upgrade BMC Helix IT Operations Management (BMC Helix ITOM) from version 24.2.00 to 24.3.00.

You might experience downtime during the upgrade, which is to be expected but does not affect the upgrade.



Before you begin



To upgrade BMC Helix IT Operations Management

  1. From the new working directory (working_directory), run the deployment manager to upgrade BMC Helix IT Operations Management:

    ./deployment-manager.sh

    After the upgrade, you will get the following message:
    Completed Helix On-prem Installation.

  2. (Optional) To view the logs during the upgrade, run the following command:

    tail -f logs/deployment.log
  3. If you have deployed BMC Helix IT Operations Management in a multitenant environment, perform the steps to restore the smart-graph-tenant-config configmap and its content:
    1. Copy the contents from the smart-graph-tenant-config configmap file that you backed up before the upgrade.
    2. To open the smart-graph-tenant-config configmap, run the command:

      kubectl -n <namespace> edit cm smart-graph-tenant-config

    3. Paste the contents that you copied from the backed-up smart-graph-tenant-config configmap file in the new smart-graph-tenant-config configmap and save it.
    4. To restart the smart graph controller pod, run the following command: 

      kubectl rollout restart deploy/smart-graph-controller -n <namepsace>
