Overview

Last Updated : Oct 18, 2024 |

The document provides procedures for upgrading WebLM from Release 7.x or 8.x to WebLM Release 10.1.2.

  • When upgrading to WebLM Release 10.1.2 on VMware, the VMware ESXi version must be 6.7 or 7.0.x.

  • From WebLM Release 10.1.2, Appliance Virtualization Platform is no longer available for deploying or upgrading the WebLM applications. To upgrade the WebLM applications, migrate Appliance Virtualization Platform to Avaya Solutions Platform 130 (Avaya-Supplied ESXi 7.0) Release 5.x.

  • From Release 10.1.2, WebLM will no longer have the Amazon Web Services (AWS). Alternately, you can continue to deploy the application by using the software-only offer. For more information, see the Deploying standalone Avaya WebLM in Software-Only and Infrastructure as a Service Environment guide.

Note:

For upgrading WebLM from Release 6.x to Release 10.1.2, first upgrade WebLM Release 6.x to 8.1.x, and then upgrade to WebLM Release 10.1.2. You cannot directly upgrade the Release 6.x system to Release 10.1.2 and later. If you upgrade the application directly from Release 6.3.x to Release 10.1.2, the upgrade fails.

Important:

  • If you are upgrading standalone WebLM using Solution Deployment Manager on the following supported platform, the system preserves the licenses that are available on old WebLM.

    • Appliance Virtualization Platform to VMware

    • VMware to VMware

  • If you are upgrading standalone WebLM by using Solution Deployment Manager in Software-only environment, the system does not preserve the licenses that are available on old WebLM.

  • If you are upgrading standalone WebLM by using CLI-based procedure without using Solution Deployment Manager, the licenses that were available on the old WebLM server are not preserved as the host id of the new WebLM is different from the old one. In this case you need to rehost the licenses on the new WebLM using the new host id after the upgrade. As part of the CLI restore only the users that were available on the old WebLM are preserved, if supported depending on the upgrade path.
