Running the Upgrade Utility
The following instructions assume that the Portal and Database components reside on the same server. If your database is on a separate server, refer to
Upgrading on Separate Portal and Database Servers (Valid for Legacy Systems) for additional instructions.
1. Verify your current StorageConsole version. You must be currently running StorageConsole version 8.4.02 or greater.
2. Verify that the libXtst.so.6 libraries are installed.
3. Ensure that all APTARE StorageConsole application services are up and running. Next, as user root run the following command and respond to the prompts accordingly.
sh /opt/aptare/upgrade/upgrade.sh
• If there are errors during the upgrade, the following banner is displayed:
