Pre-upgrade considerations

Review these special considerations before running an upgrade.

Coordinator upgrades

Coordinator upgrades may take longer than expected due to additions to the Changes Auditor database schema. The duration of the upgrade is dependent on the number of events generated in the last 45 days prior to the upgrade. The estimated time is approximately 1 minute for 1 million events.

Larger, more active environments should prepare for coordinator downtime of several hours during the upgrade process. You can view the upgrade progress in the coordinator logs or by connecting the upgraded client to the coordinator.

Upgrading a coordinator that is using Azure SQL Managed Instance for the database configuration

Single User Mode is not supported during installation or upgrade when using Azure SQL Managed Instance.

Upgrading a coordinator that is using SQL AlwaysOn Availability Groups for the database configuration

When upgrading Change Auditor databases that are part of a SQL AlwaysOn Availability Group, the upgrade can be performed while connected to the availability group listener. The upgrade will take place on the primary database and SQL will replicate any changes to the other databases in the availability group. Ensure that all SQL connections to the primary database are closed before and during the upgrade.

Stop any services that use the Change Auditor SDK, such as Active Roles or GPOADmin, before starting the upgrade process.

Starting with Change Auditor 6.0, on the coordinator startup the database collation is checked against SQL server collation. If they are different, the coordinator stops and logs the “Database collation differs from server collation” warning. If it is not possible to update collation of the SQL server, use the AllowCollationSwitch registry key to allow proceeding with rebuilding Change Auditor database according to the new collation. However, using this in environment with large number of events in the database significantly increases the load on SQL server. See the Change Auditor Technical Insight Guide for more information about setting this registry key.

It is critical that Change Auditor for Exchange agent upgrades be scheduled for maintenance intervals or other periods of low user mailbox activity for any configuration of Exchange Server. Change Auditor for Exchange agent upgrades should not be attempted on an active Exchange Server cluster node in any case. Attempting to upgrade the agent on a busy Exchange Server may result in:

To eliminate the possibility of unscheduled Exchange Server downtime, perform agent upgrades to Exchange Servers during periods of low or no mailbox activity. When upgrading agents on busy Exchange Servers, it is also recommended that you manually stop the agent before upgrading to avoid a possible timeout on the stop command. Verify that the Change Auditor agent service is stopped on the Exchange Server before proceeding with the agent upgrade.

This setting is no longer available. If you want to reduce the amount of email produced from alert-enabled searches, you must set the "AlertScanPeriod" registry key setting on the coordinator computer:

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Quest\ChangeAuditor\Coordinator

Upgrade Change Auditor

To ensure success, upgrade the Change Auditor components in the following order:

Step 1: Upgrade all coordinators (and database schema)

During an upgrade of the first coordinator, the Change Auditor database is upgraded. Before proceeding with the coordinator upgrade, backup the database.
