Upgrade the cartridges in a federated or High Availability (HA) environment

This section provides procedures for:

Upgrade cartridges in a federated environment

Cartridge upgrades in a Federated environment need to be handled differently than typical cartridge upgrades. To maintain the Federated topology, you must disconnect/reconnect the queries as part of the upgrade procedure.

You must also ensure that the required cartridges are being upgraded in a Federated environment. For example, you may determine the following:

In this example, after upgrading the two Federated Children, you need to upgrade the Foglight for Infrastructure, Foglight for Oracle, and Foglight for SQL Server on the Federation Master.

The procedure outlined below describes the required sequence of steps.

Upgrade cartridges in a High Availability environment

When upgrading cartridges in an HA environment, if both the primary and the secondary Management Servers are running, you only need to install each cartridge you want to upgrade on the primary Management Server. The cartridges are then copied over to the secondary Management Server automatically.

The management log reports on the copying of the cartridges.
