A BigFix Administrator will be performing an upgrade in a Distributed Server Architecture (DSA) environment.

To upgrade a DSA environment, the following steps are required:

Run the BigFix Server upgrade on the primary server first, following the manual upgrade instructions1.

Verify that the primary server is upgraded successfully and that all the services are running.

Run the BigFix Server upgrade on the secondary servers, one at a time, following the same manual upgrade instructions1.

Verify that the secondary servers are upgraded successfully and that all the services are running.

Verify that the DSA replication is working properly and that the data is consistent across all the servers.
