The fully automated upgrade process includes upgrading a product from earlier release to the latest release by using either Solution Deployment Manager Client or System Manager Solution Deployment Manager. In fully automated upgrade all subsequent steps are executed as a single process, including tasks such as backup, deploy, and post upgrade tasks such as applying patches or service packs.

For fully automated upgrade using Solution Deployment Manager, the system does not allow to change the IP Address of the application. Alternatively, you can use the Migration using CLI method.

To upgrade System Manager, use Solution Deployment Manager Client. To upgrade applications other than System Manager, use System Manager Solution Deployment Manager.
