We run the following modules on all of our Orion pollers. Our setup is one NPM main poller and 3 remote pollers. They all currently have the following versions loaded.
Orion Platform 2013.1.0, SAM 5.5.0, NCM 7.2, NPM 10.5, NTA 3.11.0, IVIM 1.6.0, VNQM 4.0.1
NPM 10.6 is available and so is are modules SAM, NCM, and VNQM. If we are on the next release down for NPM and all modules, what are the recommended steps for upgrading to these releases. Im having a hard time sorting through documentation that explains steps needed to do this properly. I want to make sure I have a source for documented process so I can hand this off to our NOC team to manage.
Ill take a stab but this is what I think.
Shut down all services on main and remote pollers
Upgrade software on main and remote pollers.
Start services on main poller first, then remote pollers.
Or is there a better documented process?
