I will be doing an upgrade this week and would like some help.... We are completely virtual - I will be migrating to a new 2016 server to host my Orion DB.. and I will be mirgrating my Orion server to a new 2016 box as we have had too many issues with in place upgrades on 08 boxes.
I have seen conflicting information in how this process should be done.... should I upgrade the DB and the Migrate the boxes and THEN proceed with my platform and product upgrades? or do the product upgrades on the 08 box prior to the upgrade? I will also be creating an additional poller and dont' know at which point I should bring this in.
Here is my current structure:
Orion 2017.1.3 on 2008 R2
DB - SQL 2012 SP4
IPAM: 4.3.2
NPM - 12.1
SAM - 6.4
UDT 3.2.4
NCM- 7.5.1 (not Licensed)
Ideal structure:
Orion 2018.4 on Server 2016
DB - SQL 2017
IPAM: 4.8.1
NPM -12.4
SAM - 6.7.1
UDT 3.3.2
NCM 7.9 (not in current structure)
