  • 1.  Upgrading Airwave 8.2.10 / Centos6

    Posted Oct 19, 2023 04:08 AM

    Hi,

    Need to upgrade an Airewave 8.2.10 appliance still running  over centos 6. To get onto the centos7  release is it just a case of reinstalling 8.2.10 and  it'll do the underlying os upgrade for you, then you can  go through the releases to get to  8.2.15 / or 8.3 ?

    Yes. You need to do Fresh install of 8.2.10 CentOS7, restore the backup for current 8.2.10 CentOS6 appliance. upgrade to 8.2.15.1 with the intermediate upgrade versions. Please check the Release notes for 8.2.11, 8.2.13 and 8.2.15.1

    Post that, you need to do a Fresh install of 8.3 RHEL8 version and restore the backup from 8.2.15.1 version.

    Make sure to always take backups after every upgrade as a precautionary measure.

    Please work with TAC for details steps and guidance for the upgrade process.

    P.S. There is no OS upgrade for major versions like CentOS7, RHEL8. so, we need to fresh install of AirWave which will install the underlying OS.
