Upgrading Dell Lifecycle Controller Integration for

Configuration Manager from a previous version

NOTE:

• Before upgrading to the latest version of Configuration Manager from a previous version of

Configuration Manager, you must first uninstall DLCI, and delete the boot images. After

upgrading the Configuration Manager to the latest version, install DLCI. For information about

upgrading Configuration Manager from previous versions, see technet.microsoft.com/en-us/

library/jj822981.aspx.

• DLCI for Configuration Manager supports upgrading only from version 3.0 to later versions.

If you have lower version installed, you must first uninstall the lower version and then install

version 3.1. When you uninstall the lower version, the previous settings are not retained and you

must rediscover the target systems after you install version 3.1. For example, as DLCI for

Configuration Manager does not support upgrade from DLCI 2.2 to DLCI 3.1, uninstall DLCI 2.2

and then install DLCI 3.1.

• While upgrading to DLCI 3.1 from DLCI 3.0, if you want to make a configuration change such as,

adding or deleting SMS providers, you must uninstall DLCI 3.0, make the configuration change,

and then install DLCI 3.1.
