What to do next
Log in to VCM and upgrade your VCM Windows Agents. See "Upgrade Existing Windows Agents" below.
Upgrade Existing Windows Agents
Use the Upgrade Agent wizard to upgrade the Agent files on one or more Windows machines. If you are
upgrading VCM from 5.4, an upgrade to your Windows Agents is not required.
The upgrade process uses the current settings of the Agent installed on the Windows machine. For
example, if the Agent uses DCOM, or HTTP on port 26542, the upgrade process retains that setting. This
process will not upgrade components that do not require an upgrade.
