Upgrade and compatibility

Upgrade and compatibility

The latest version of Foglight for SNMP is 5.9.6.

Prerequisite: Foglight for Infrastructure 5.8.5.4 (or later) must be installed before upgrading to Foglight for SNMP 5.9.6.

Note: Foglight for Infrastructure is order-dependent. Therefore, the Agent Manager must be updated on the Management Server prior to installing Foglight for Infrastructure.

 

Important: The BindUpTimeToHostBootTime rule was updated since Foglight for SNMP version 5.8.5.6. Before upgrading Foglight for SNMP to version 5.8.5.6 or later from old versions (for example, 5.8.5.3), ensure that the BindUpTimeToHostBootTime rule was not modified on your environment. After upgrading to version 5.8.5.6 or later, you must disable the GenericSNMPService cartridge and then re-enable it (or restart the Management Server), so that the rule change takes effect.

 

To upgrade Foglight for SNMP to the latest version:

  1. Use the Administration > Cartridges > Cartridge Inventory dashboard to install the SNMPCartridge-5_9_6.car cartridge and all the sub-cartridges within it. Do not delete the older version of the .car file. Install version 5.9.6 over the older version.
  2. Manually upgrade the agents.
    1. Navigate to the Administration > Agents > Agent Status dashboard.
    2. Do one of the following:
      • Select any GenericSNMPAgent type agent and any GenericSNMPTrapAgent type agent and click Upgrade.
      • Click Deploy Agent Package and deploy both GenericeSNMPAgent and GenericSNMPTrapAgent packages to the targeted Foglight Agent Manager host.
  3. Disable the GenericSNMPService cartridge and then re-enable it (or restart the Management Server), so that the rule changes takes effect.
