Deploying Storage Agents after an Upgrade

After the StorageCollector cartridge is updated, (using the Installed Cartridge dashboard), it needs to be deployed to the Agent Manager(s) that have agents of this type. Deployment should be done from the Storage Environment Administration dashboard.

Using the Update Agent function on the Storage Environment Administration tab will ensure that updates to the StorageCollector agent remain in synch with updates to the embedded database.

After the upgrade completes successfully, the Storage Collector Agents view may show that the agents are not active. This is a temporary state, while the agents are being upgraded with the new code.
