Can I update the SolarWinds Administration service without it effecting any other modules ?

I see a message as below on the updates page. We currently running 2020.2.6 for all modules, and SRM on 2020.2.7

"A new version of the SolarWinds Administration service is ready to install.
When you install this version, you will only be able to upgrade your environment to products built on SolarWinds Platform 2022.2 and later."

My question is, can I perform the SolarWinds Administration service upgrade from that page without it effecting/upgrading anything else ?

Upgrade Administration service

Are you sure you want to upgrade the SolarWinds Administration service?

When you upgrade the service, your environment will be upgraded to the new SolarWinds Platform. You will be able to install upgrades and hotfixes for SolarWinds Platform 2022.2 and later.

You will not be able to install products and hotfixes running on Orion Platform 2020.2.6 and earlier.

if it asks, yes. You will want to make sure all your polling engines are at the same Admin service level. It will not force a restart or interrupt your server.
