Upgrade: Java Linux Static Agent on a Host
Overview
The vFunction Controller keeps a backup of environmentally-specific files in /etc/sysconfig/vfunction/installation/backup/. These backup files are then copied back into the default location during the upgrade process. Because this backup-and-copy process is in place, no manual steps are required to keep backups of files before the upgrade occurs.
Upgrade Steps
- Download the vFunction Controller package
- SCP the Controller TGZ package to the Linux VM
