Upgrade software on stand-alone K2 systems
Prerequisites for this task are as follows:
• The devices that you are upgrading are in a deployment group.
• For the software you are upgrading, you have added a newer version of that managed
software package to the deployment group.
• You have recently done the SiteConfig "Check Software" operation on the devices
you are upgrading.
• For the K2 Summit Production Client or K2 Solo Media Server, the write filter is
disabled (unlocked).
If you are upgrading multiple software components for which there is a required
sequence, you must check and uncheck tasks and run multiple deployment sessions
to control the sequence. For some software components, SiteConfig aids you by
enforcing dependencies. For each individual software component, SiteConfig enforces
an uninstall of the current version of software before installing the upgrade version.
SiteConfig provides uninstall deployment tasks and install deployment tasks to indicate
the taskflow. SiteConfig can do the uninstall/install in a single deployment session.
1. In the Software Deployment | Deployment Groups tree view, select the device or the
group of devices to which you are deploying software.
The corresponding software deployment tasks are displayed in the Tasks list
view.
2. For the software you are deploying, select the Deploy check box in the row for the
uninstall task.
3. For the software you are installing, select the Deploy check box in the row for the
install task.
For upgrading stand-alone K2 systems to this release, configure Deploy check
boxes as follows:
Action
Managed PackageDeploy
UninstallGrassValleyK2SummitStandalone
xxxx.xxxx
InstallGrassValleyK2SummitStandalone
7.2.7.xxxx
Install (there is no uninstall task for
this software)
WFRegMon_SummitStandalone
x.x.x
Also, if SiteConfig generates deployment tasks to upgrade SNFS, you must
upgrade SNFS. Deploy the following tasks at the same time:
Action
Managed PackageDeploy
UninstallSNFS Summit xxxxxx
Install
SNFS Summit 3.5.2.14727
