Issue/Introduction

How To increase the Current CL Version of the Server manually.

Environment

• App Control Server: All Supported Versions
• Microsoft SQL Server: All Supported Versions

Resolution

1. Determine the highest CL Version currently reported by any Agent:
   • Login to the Console and navigate to Assets > Computers.
   • Set the Saved View to (none) and add the Column: CL Version.
   • Sort on CL Version (Descending) and note the highest CL Version.
2. Note the Current CL Version and subtract the difference (Ex: Current CL Version: 49651. Highest Agent CL: 52702. Difference: 3,051)
3. Login to the application server as the Carbon Black Service account and open SQL Server Management Studio.
4. Connect to the DAS database and execute the following query (substitute <NUMBER> for the Difference found):

   use das;
   exec dbo.BumpConfigListVersion <NUMBER>;

5. Verify the Current CL Version has increased accordingly.

Additional Information

• Server CL version can be seen on the Assets > Computers page, if the page is already open, refresh the page and verify the number updates.
• CL version should be bumped up higher than the highest CL version currently reported by any Agent.
• Replace <NUMBER> with the desired amount you want to increase the CL version by.
• This procedure is used in situations where agents have a higher CL version than the server, such as the following:
  • Reverting the DAS database to an older backup
  • CL version in the database was otherwise altered to a value below what is currently in the environment
