I was recently given the task to "upgrade" LEM to SEM 6.7, does this require creating a new VM or a "update" applied to the exsisting LEM?
No new vm is required. It is just a name change from LEM to SEM.
LEM 6.4, 6.5 and 6.6 can be directly upgraded to SEM 6.7
This name change was just cosmetic.
I think SEM should've been used for a major point release, like SEM 7.0
Hi,
These 2 products (LEM and SEM) are not there in Solarwinds upgrade advisor. It would be really helpful if you can share the steps on how to upgrade LEM to SEM?
SEM is the product formerly known as LEM, they are not two separate products. In order to upgrade to the latest version of SEM, you can follow the steps listed in the Upgrade Guide. If you are running SEM 6.4 or greater you can upgrade direction to v6.7. If not, you'll need to upgrade to v6.4 and then to v6.7.
This is really helpful. Thanks a lot.
