Upgrade Orion 8.5.1 to version 9

Hello,

Does  anyone knows how to upgrade Orion 8.5.1 to version 9. Any related document will be fine.

 

 

 

Thanks 

  • Hello,

    It should a be very simple Upgrade from Orion 8.5.1 to Orion 9,

    it is just in in-place install over the existing Orion.

     

    Login to your Customer Portal,

    Download Orion 9, also double Check that you have an Orion 9 License available.

     

    Make sure you have local admin rights on the box.

    Run the Orion 9 Install, Configuration Wizard will run,

    Keep all defaults it asks you bar the first screen,

    I suggest here you use your SQL Server "SA" Username and Password,

    "SolarwindsNPM" account is fine to use on second screen though.

     

    I recommend backing up the following before upgrading:

    Backup current SQL Database before upgrading.

    Backup C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Maps

    Backup C:\Program Files\Solarwinds\Reports Folders.

     

    If you have any issues, please log a Support Ticket.

    Hope it all goes well and you enjoy all the new features Orion 9 has to Offer.
