Hi,

I'm planning to do an minor upgrade to the latest v8 build from the previous v8 build (only days apart). This is the first time upgrading.
From the release notes, a rather complicated procedure arises. Is this applicable between builds of the same major release or only to upgrade from earlier major releases to v8?
Or is can I just upgrade one node of the HA-cluster, wait for the device to resync and do the other node?

I would like to proceed with the upgrade tonight, so hopefully someone knows :-)

Thanks,
Remco

Just install a new version over an old one on the first node, wait until everything stabilizes, then proceed to next one. Works like a charm.
A guide was here: https://knowledgebase.starwindsoftware. ... d-version/
