Upgrading the IaaS Server Components
A system administrator upgrades the IaaS server components, including the Microsoft SQL Server database.
You use the IaaS installer to upgrade the Microsoft SQL Server database and congure all systems with
installed IaaS components.
If you have a Common Components Catalog component installed, you must uninstall the component before
you upgrade. After you nish the upgrade, you can reinstall the component with the appropriate version.
For more information, see the Common Components Catalog Installation Guide.
(Optional) Upgrade the SQL Database Manually
The SQL database is upgraded automatically from the machine where you run the IaaS installer as a
necessary part of the upgrade process. If you do not have permissions to update the SQL database using the
IaaS installer, contact your database administrator to upgrade the SQL database rst using the following
procedure.
An administrator can control some aspects of upgrade by using DBUpgrade.exe command line options.
The DBUpgrade command requires the names of the SQL Server database instance and the
vRealize Automation database and the port number if you are using a port other than the default SQL port.
It can use Windows authentication or SQL authentication to access the database. DBUpgrade.exe creates a log
le named dbupgrade.log in the current directory if you do not provide a path name for another directory.
I The DBUpgrade.exe command is case-sensitive. Enter the command line options using the case
shown in the command options table.
Run this command only once during an upgrade.
