Upgrading Avaya Aura Web Gateway to a new version or release

Last Updated : Jun 05, 2026 |

About this task

Use this procedure to upgrade Avaya Aura® Web Gateway within the same major version. Avaya Aura® Web Gateway is automatically stopped for the upgrade and remains out of service until you restart it after the upgrade is completed.

Important:
  • Do not use this procedure to upgrade from Release 3.11 to 10.2.x. To upgrade from Release 3.11 to 10.2.x, you must use the migration procedures as described in Migrating Avaya Aura Web Gateway.

  • When upgrading an Avaya Aura® Web Gateway cluster, you can upgrade cluster nodes in any order. After the first node is upgraded, you can upgrade other nodes at the same time.

  • You can upgrade an Avaya Aura® Web Gateway cluster even if some nodes are turned off. You can upgrade these nodes later.

Before you begin

  • Download the required upgrade file from the Avaya support site. csa-10.2.x.x.x.bin is an example of an application layer upgrade file.

  • Ensure that the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway application is installed. Otherwise, the app upgrade command will not work. For more information about Avaya Aura® Web Gateway installation, see Deploying the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway.

  • Ensure that you know the enrollment password. Avaya Aura® Web Gateway does not store the enrollment password, so you must enter it during the upgrade.

  • In a cluster environment, if you use Avaya Spaces Calling Gateway, enable Maintenance mode as described in Enabling Maintenance mode.

  • Upgrade the system layer (operating system):

Procedure

  1. Transfer the upgrade file to the administrator home folder on the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway server using a file transfer tool of your choice.
  2. Log in to the Avaya Aura® Web Gateway CLI as an administrator.
  3. Set executable permissions on the upgrade file by using the following command:
    chmod 770 <filename>
    For example:
    chmod 770 csa-10.2.x.x.x.bin
  4. Run the following command to start the upgrade:
    app upgrade <filename>
    For example:
    app upgrade csa-10.2.x.x.x.bin
  5. Follow the prompts to complete the upgrade.
  6. Restart services by running the svc csa restart command.

    If you are upgrading a cluster, you can restart an upgraded node before the upgrade is completed on other nodes.
