Upgrades for Server Edition are expected to follow the normal IP Office release
cycle. It will be a single iso distribution for the complete solution; it is a large file in
excess of 2.5GB.
The Primary server is upgraded first, followed by the Secondary and then all
expansion systems. The aim is to keep all of the components in the network on the
same software level. Systems can also be upgraded and patched separately if
required.
The Primary server can be upgraded in 2 ways:
1. Locally by booting the server with the latest DVD in the PC and then select the
upgrade option.
2. Remotely the Primary server can download the iso from an ftp/http or https file
server. This is done from the solution management page in Web control. The good
thing with this method is that the upgrade package can be downloaded at any time as
it has no impact on the server operation. Once the download is complete you then go
back to the solution management page and select Update Primary, followed by
Secondary and then expansion systems.
Remote upgrade via http proxy is not supported
