A farm typically consists of a primary machine and one or
more additional machines. This is an overview of the process to upgrade a farm that runs
on multiple machines:
-
Install the new version of the
Setup_dEPM_Services.exe file on all the machines that are part of
the farm.
Note: Ensure that you update
all machines with the same new version. All services must have a matching
build version. On each machine, manually install the update or patch by
running Setup_dEPM_Services.exe. You can
use the individual service installers to upgrade only the services installed
on your machine.
-
On the primary machine, run the configuration with the Service Expert. This upgrades the system
databases.
-
On each additional machine, complete the configuration with the Service Expert.
-
On the primary machine, continue the installation in the
Farm Expert. Close the Service Expert, optionally selecting the option to launch
the Farm Expert.
-
When prompted, restart Dashboards Service worker on the primary machine, and on
any other farm that have the system databases installed.
-
On the primary machine, complete the configuration in the
Farm Expert.
