Upgrading to NPM 7.8.3

When you have more than one poller, must one apply the upgrade to each poller? Should anything different be done as far as upgrading a second poller? Does the Run Configuration Wizard still need to be run on the second poller?

As a matter of practical policy, when we upgrade to a newer release, we always upgrade the Orion host server and all additional polling engines at the same time. Not knowing the details of all changes that are made with each update, we assume it best to keep everything consistent across our entire Orion installation. Naturally, you have to stop all polling and statistics gathering when running the Configuration Wizard, so we figured why not upgrade all polling engines while it's down...

The upgrade process for the additional polling engines is identical to the host server itself, but it is a different (slimmed down) executable.

Yeap... I believe the Config Wiz should be run on any component that is upgraded.
