Upgrading Connectivity Services Director

 

Before you start the upgrade, ensure that you have:

  • Disabled monitoring for all categories from the Monitoring tab of the Preferences page. For more details, see Disabling Data Collection for Monitors section in Setting Up User and System Preferences.

  • Taken a back up your database using the Junos Space backup feature. For more details, see Backing Up and Restoring the Database Overview.

  • Junos Space Release 20.3R1 running on your appliance or virtual machine.

    If your appliance is running a Junos Space release that is earlier than the supported release, you must first determine the currently installed Junos Space version and then upgrade Junos Space before installing Connectivity Services Director. For instructions on how to upgrade Junos Space Platform, refer How Do I Upgrade Junos Space?

    To determine the installed Junos Space version:

    1. Log in to Junos Space by using the default username and password for Junos Space: super and juniper123.

      Junos Space opens the dashboard.

    2. Click the add symbol (+) next to Administration to expand the Administration menu.
    3. Click Applications to list all of the applications installed.
    4. Note the version of the Network Management Platform or the Network Application Platform. (Some earlier versions of the Network Management Platform were named Network Application Platform.) If the currently installed release is a supported one, you can skip the rest of this procedure; if not, you must upgrade the Network Management Platform to a supported release.

  • Downloaded the Connectivity Services Director Release 5.3R1 software image to the hard disk or to an SCP server. The SCP server in this context is a Linux server on which the Connectivity Services Director image is stored. You can download Connectivity Services Director software image from http://www.juniper.net/support/downloads/space.html.

    You can either:

    • Copy the temporary download link generated by the software download page. You can use the wget download-link command from the remote server to download the image directly to the device, or

    • Download the software image to a local directory.

  • Configuring basic Junos Space settings

    You can configure a Junos Space Appliance as a Junos Space node or as a specialized node used for fault monitoring and performance monitoring (FMPM). For detailed steps to configure a Junos Space Appliance as a Junos Space node, see Configuring a Junos Space Appliance.

    After you deploy a Junos Space Virtual Appliance on a VMware ESX or VMware ESXi server, you must enter basic network and machine information to make your Junos Space Virtual Appliance accessible on the network. You must also increase the virtual machine (VM) drive size. For more information see, Configuring the Basic Settings of a Junos Space Virtual Appliance.
