Solarwinds Orion Installer

Thanks!  That was the information I needed.  I have not done updates in sometime and sounds like this tool should make it easy. 

Since you've used it, I've got a question for you.  Is it something that can function on a stand-alone network (no Internet connectivity)?  It sounds like it would need to reach back to SolarWinds. If so, it's a no starter for me.

Thanks much,

Terry

Yes it does use the internet to download the updates that are needed. 

The offline installation is our usual method.  I had hoped I could download all the offline packages and just hit the magic "upgrade all" button versus the individual package upgrades.

One more question if you don't mind.  Is it best practice to perform in place upgrades or new clean builds?  I can do both ways.

Thanks much,

Terry

Hi Josh, what's the updated download link for the offline Orion Installer?  The URL at start of this post (https://support.solarwinds.com/Success_Center/Orion_Platform/Orion_Documentation/SolarWinds_Feature%3A_SolarWinds_Orion_… ) now only gives details on the installer -- without giving the Installer itself.

Hi, also:  Where do I look to see the old version of installer that is on the system now?

You need to login to your solarwinds account and go to the download section for NPM and it will be listed under the Install Type.
