4.9.06 - Upgrade Notes

Akkadian Labs does extensive testing on all our upgrades, but we suggest you take
the following precautions before upgrading.

Perform a Manual Backup:

1. Log in as PMEAdmin or as an Administrator
2. Select Backup and Restore from the System menu
3. Click Backup and save the file to a safe location

Take a VMWare Snapshot (Optional):

This step is optional, but it will allow you to easily roll back to the previous version
without having to redeploy the aPME OVA.

1. Power down the aPME Virtual Machine
2. Right click on the Virtual Machine and select > Snapshot > Take Snapshot.
3. Type a name for the snapshot.
4. Type a description for the snapshot.

Please note starting with version 4.9.04, aPME is no longer supported on
Windows. aPME for Windows can easily be migrated to Linux using the
backup and restore process.

All clusters, including Unity Connection must be synchronized after
performing the upgrade or provisioning will not function properly
