Hi All,
We’re excited to announce the early availability of Background Gateway Upgrade, a major step forward in simplifying Security Gateway upgrade operations — now available for testing by interested customers and partners!
Background Gateway Upgrade introduces a new upgrade flow where the majority of the upgrade process is handled in the background, with no impact to gateway performance or traffic.
This new capability is currently available under a feature flag through a specific Deployment Agent version in CPUSE.
With Background Gateway Upgrade, you can:
Dramatically reduce downtime during major version upgrades or JumboHotfix installations
Simplify upgrade planning and execution
Minimize upgrade risk by pre-validating the upgrade environment
Improve operational continuity — users and traffic stay unaffected until reboot
We’re here to support you throughout the process and would love your feedback as we shape this into a standard capability for all customers!

Thanks,
Raz
