Upgrade VSX Cluster from R77.30 to R80.20 with CLEAN INSTALL

[TheRealDiZ]

Hi Guys,

There is a clear SK on how to upgrade VSX from any version to R77.30 : 

https://supportcenter.checkpoint.com/supportcenter/portal?eventSubmit_doGoviewsolutiondetails=&solut...

Can I use this sk also for R80.20?

Is there any specific documents related to it?

Did you guys have already tried this procedure with R80.20 (suggestions/tips)?

Many many thanks.. in advance!

@TheRealDiZ , there is a different document covering this, which is part of the R80.20 documentation packages.

Look here: https://sc1.checkpoint.com/documents/R80.20_GA/WebAdminGuides/EN/CP_R80.20_Installation_and_Upgrade_...

and go to "Minimal Effort Upgrade of a VSX Cluster". Among scenarios, there is a clean install.

Good luck.

Hey @_Val_ ,

Obv I have already checked all R80.20 documentation package but there is no clear "Upgrade with clean install" process as easily described in the SK mentioned.

I just want to understand if the sk could be used also for R80.XX and not only to R77.20/30.

I think it will be very helpful to have such a SK also for R80.20/30 and so on..

Do you agree with me?
