    • Prepare your instance upgrade with Upgrade Plan by determining all the applications and plugins are ready to be implemented in the upgrade.

    Before you begin

    Role required: admin

    Procedure

    1. Navigate to All > Upgrade Plan.
      The upgrade plan that is installed shows up on the list.
    2. Select the upgrade plan.
      The upgrade plan form view shows up with all its configurations.
    3. To ensure that all the applications and plugins are ready to be implemented in the upgrade, select Refresh in the context menu of the Upgrade Plan.
      If there are errors for any of the items, then fix them and follow the Reprocess step.
      Note:
      All the applications and plugins under the Upgrade Plan Items related list must be in the Ready state to proceed with the upgrade. The application or plugin in the Already Installed state, error or its latest version won't be considered during the upgrade process.
      The upgrade plan is now ready to be implemented.
    4. Apply an existing upgrade plan to an instance anytime, without being limited to during upgrades only.

      You can now also export the upgrade plan in a batch install format by using the Export button. See CI/CD - POST /sn_cicd/app/batch/install for more information.

    5. Optional: Select Reinstall to reinstall the failed items in an upgrade plan, after the upgrade completes.
      You can also review the upgrade plan history to know the reasons of failure.
      Note:
      You are required to use this option only if you have failed items in an upgrade plan.
    6. Optional: Click Reprocess to reprocess the upgrade plan after the upgrade plan item errors have been resolved.
      Note:
      This step is applicable only if you have any error items in the upgrade plan.
