Upgrades

For information on upgrading from one full release to another, refer to the Installation and Commissioning document you receive with the upgrade.

Updating the SIP Application Module software

Administrators can update the software version of the SIP Application Module using the System Management Console. The update can be either an up- or down-version of the software.

Updating the software affects the operation of the component’s hosted services during the procedure. This process automatically fills the service property fields of the updated component with the configured values from the previous version.

The update introduces new functionality across many components without affecting network stability. If a server update fails, you have a choice to roll back or not. For more information on the update procedure, refer to the MCP System Management Console Basics document.

at the System Management Console

1A load can be either up-versioned or down-versioned. In either case, updating a load from one version to another results in stopping and deleting the previously added version, adding the new version and auto-launching the new version. Therefore, there is no need to manually LOCK and UNLOCK the service. The steps involved in an update are described below.

From the System Management Console, under the Components folder, select the name configured at deployment, AppSvr in the example shown in Figure 1.
