This topic describes the steps for upgrading a single instance of SkyVault.
The main stages involved in upgrading and configuring SkyVault are shown in the diagram. These include preparing your system for upgrade, installing SkyVault as an out-of-box application, configuring it based on your requirements, restoring production data, and finally, testing and getting familiar to SkyVault.
Each of these main stages consist of sub-steps, as shown in the diagram, which
displays the sub-steps that need to be performed in order to
complete each main stage.
Note: Note that the steps shown in the diagrams have
a colour code. For example, Restoring production data stage consists of three sub-steps, namely,
Stop the SkyVault server, Restore production data, and Start the SkyVault server.
Note: SkyVault recommends that you upgrade SkyVault in a test environment before you upgrade it in
your production environment. This allows you to address any problems during the upgrade process
more effectively. You can also verify that applications and scripts work properly before
upgrading your production environment. In addition, you can assess the time that it takes to
upgrade the database, to finalize your upgrade plan.
