Primary SMS upgrade from R81.10 to R82 fail

[todd]

Hi,

I am preparing for a customer SMS upgrade activity, so I do it in my lab environment first.

I encountered an upgrade failure then it showed successful after a while.

In the end, it is successfully upgrade.

Is this normal behavior ?

Thanks,

Did you updated the migrate upgrade tools before upgrade or using the one that was already on the unit?

Latest version you can download here:

I was using ngm_upgrade_wrapper_998001174_1.tgz to upgrade.

I will try ngm_upgrade_wrapper_998001187_1.tgz.

Thanks,

Todd

After installing wrapper_998001187, the "Create Preset Objects" phase still fails.

Gaia will attempt to restart the upgrade service, and after a while, the problem will be resolved and the upgrade process will be complete.

Any more errors you got that we can work with? After upgrade of the tools is it any better or exactly  the same?

After upgrade of the tools, the "Create Preset Objects" phase still fails and success. It is the same.

I guess it is normal process.

Thank you.

Most important is that you updated the upgrade tools if you run old version it often gives issues
