Prerequisites

  • Create a snapshot or backup copy of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs virtual appliance(s)
  • Obtain a copy of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs upgrade bundle .pak file for the release you are upgrading to from the Broadcom Support Portal.
  • Verify that you are logged in to the VMware Aria Operations for Logs web user interface as a user with the Edit Admin permission. The URL format is https://log-insight-host, where log-insight-host is the IP address or host name of the primary node of the VMware Aria Operations for Logs virtual cluster.
  • Make a note of any nodes you are upgrading that are in maintenance mode. Ensure you take all nodes out of maintenance mode prior to the upgrade.  When the upgrade is finished, you may move them from the state Connected to Maintenance mode.

 

Procedure

  2. Click 'Upgrade Cluster' to upload the pak file.
  3. Accept the new EULA to complete the upgrade procedure.

 

What to do next

    • Check for the email sent to the Admin to confirm the upgrade completed successfully.
    • Remove the snapshots from the VMware Aria Operations for Logs appliance(s) within ~72 hours after a successful upgrade to avoid performance issues
