Upgrade Guide with Delta or Patch Bundle#
Introduction#
The Upgrade Guide with Delta or Patch Bundle (this document) is a guide for upgrades to a maintenance release, for example, 24.2-PB2.
The Upgrade Guide with ISO and Template is a guide for upgrades to a major version release, for example, 24.1, 24.2.
Note
For all fresh installs (covered in the Installation Guide) or for upgrades, review the Release and Upgrade Notes accompanying the relevant release.
A Method of Procedure (MOP) document is published on the client portal (https://voss.portalshape.com) together with the individual patch it refers to (in the same directory, for example, Downloads > VOSS Automate > 24.2 > Patches > [patch name]). These are patches that may be delivered between (major or maintenance) releases. The MOP accompanying a patch provides download and install details specific to the patch.
Each section of this guide includes labels to indicate the relevant topologies:
