Estimates of time to completion
Below are estimates of the time it takes for the 8.3.0 upgrade patch to run. The amount
of time is variable, as indicated. As a best practice, allow the patch to run at least 90
minutes before aborting the install and contacting Forcepoint
Important
The upgrade process is designed for functional appliances
in a functional deployment. Required network interfaces
must have reliable connections to TRITON components
and the Internet. Upgrading does not repair a non-
functional system.
Important
If you have multiple appliances, and:
● They are running version 7.8.4, 8.0.0, or 8.0.1
● You plan to download the upgrade patch to a local host
and then upload it to multiple appliances
You may run into a Java version error. For a complete
