3.5.1 Matrix Server Upgrade Guide

Single Rolling Upgrades

The single rolling upgrade procedures do not require any matrix

downtime. Each server is removed from the matrix, upgraded, and then

returned to the matrix. If the Management Console is installed on client

machines, you will also need to upgrade that software. Rolling upgrades

to Matrix Server 3.5.1 are supported only from Matrix Server 3.1.2 and

3.5.0.

Rolling Upgrade Considerations

You should be aware of the following when upgrading to the Matrix

Server 3.5.1 release.

Order for Upgrading Servers

Servers must be upgraded one-at-a-time during the upgrade. The server

with the numerically highest primary IP address must be upgraded

first. Then continue to upgrade the servers in descending order of IP

address, with the server with the lowest primary IP address being

upgraded last.

If you have two networks and the IP addresses are ordered differently on

each network, you will need to determine the IP addresses by which the

servers are known to the matrix and then use those addresses to

determine the order for the upgrade.
