Hi Folks,
I am upgrading my PDI to newest version i.e. Xanadu. I started the upgrade on Friday (4th Oct 2024), evening and then on monday when I logged in, the upgrade was still going on... And Today, again the upgrade is still in progress.
Is this behaviour common ? I am not sure.
Can anyone suggest what I should do ? I cannot release my instance, because I need it.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Generally it take 4-8 hrs and it is taking more than 4 days now, if you are getting option to release the instance please do the same and take a new one.

As you might know, there is no support available from servicenow in relation to PDI, hence your limited to two options :
- Wait, it should come back after some time.
- when you get tired of waiting, release your instance and request a fresh installation. Note, all work that you haven't backed up will be lost for good.

@Akash Srivasta2 Similar issues are reported by other users https://www.servicenow.com/community/developer-forum/pdi-xanadu-upgrade-still-running-3-days/td-p/30...
It looks like there are some issues going on with Xanadu upgrades on PDI. If the upgrade is taking longer then I recommend requesting a fresh PDI on Xanadu. Hope this helps.

I'm marking this thread as complete. Unfortunately, I had to release my instance, since the upgrade is taking forever.
Talking about my works backup, luckily i found the xmls which I had with me, so I am going to just put that in new instance.
Thank you all for helping me out with this issue.
