Upgrading NetScaler Gateway VPX
Jul 18 , 20 13
After you install NetScaler Gateway VPX on your hypervisor, you can then upgrade to new versions of the software by
using the same method that you use for the physical appliance.
You can upgrade the software that resides on NetScaler Gateway when new releases are made available. You can check
for updates on the Citrix Web site. You can upgrade to a new release only if your NetScaler Gateway licenses are under the
Subscription Advantage program when the update is released. You can renew Subscription Advantage at any time. For more
information, see the Citrix Web site.
When a new version is released, you download the .tgz file to your computer, copy the file to the NetScaler Gateway virtual
appliance, and then upgrade by using either the command line or the configuration utility.
For the most recent Access Gateway 9.3, Enterprise Edition maintenance release readme, see article CTX129345 in the
Citrix Knowledge Center.
For the most recent Access Gateway 10 maintenance release readme, see article CTX133966 in the Citrix Knowledge
