Upgrade multiple agents in an instance

When performing selective upgrade of an agent in an instance, you can select multiple instances to upgrade at once.

Avant de commencer

Supported Operating Systems: Windows and Linux.

Agent Client Collector installs need to access this URL: https://install.service-now.com/. MID connected agents can download the installer from the MID Server (https://<MID-WEBSERVER-URI:PORT>/static/acc_installers/agent-client-collector).

Select the version to which you want to upgrade your agent.

1. Navigate to All > System Properties > All Properties.
2. Select New.
3. Assign the following values:
   • Name = sn_agent.agent_upgrade_version
   • Type = string
   • Value = The version number to be upgraded to, in the format <major_version.minor_version.patch_version>. For example: 4.3.2
4. Select Submit.

If you do not select a version, the agent automatically upgrades to the current Agent Client Collector Framework scoped app version.

When working with MID-less agents, ensure that the agents are connected to a Content Delivery Network (CDN). For details, see Configure proxies when performing MID-less upgrade using a Content Delivery Network (CDN).
