How do I upgrade BE2014 to BE2016?
Hi all
I am running BE2014 and 5 Windows agent. I have questions about upgrading BE 2014 to BE 2016
1. How do I backup configration and backup policy of BE 2014?
2. For management console, do I use way in-place upgrade? How do I upgrade agent?
3. If I fail ugrading, I try to remove BE2014 and install BE2016. After install BE2016, how do I restore backup job?
Hi,
1. Stop all BE services. Go to the installation directory and grab copies of the Data & Catalogs folders. The Data folder contains the BEDB itself, as well as the backed up BEDB (bedb.bak);
2. Run the installer for BE 16 and it will ask if you want to upgrade the media server. Do so, and once done, run LiveUpdate to install any patches. Once done, run a push-install from the media server to upgrade the remote agents.
Thanks!
