Upgrading Junos Space Network Management Platform

You can install Network Director Release 5.2R1 newly only on Junos Space Network Management Platform Release 21.2R1. If you are using Junos Space Network Management Platform Release 21.2R1, you can skip this procedure and begin installation of Network Director.

CAUTION:

It is mandatory to install Network Director 5.1R1-hotpatch-v3 before upgrading to Junos Space Network Management Platform 21.2R1. If the Network Director 5.1R1-hotpatch-v3 is not installed, you may see issue in high availability formation on Junos Space Network Management Platform 21.2R1.

If you are using a Junos Space Platform release that is earlier than the supported release, you need to upgrade Junos Space Platform before installing Network Director. To determine the Junos Space Platform release version and to upgrade Junos Space Network Management Platform, follow these steps:

  1. Determine the installed Junos Space Platform 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 plus 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 Junos Space 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 Junos Space Platform to a supported release.
  2. Upgrade Junos Space Network Management Platform to 21.2R1. For upgrade steps, see Junos Space Network Management Platform Upgrade Instructions.
Note:

You can upgrade the existing Junos Space Platform running on your appliance to the immediate next release. For example, you can upgrade to Junos Space Network Management Platform 21.2R1 from Junos Space Network Management Platform 21.1R1.

Note:

If the Junos Space Platform runs a version earlier than Release 20.3R1, you must first upgrade Junos Space Platform to Release 21.1R1.
