Migration of 4.1 Agents to 4.2
We are moving a 4.1 env to 4.2 and I as per the migration guide, the agents are automatically upgraded.
So the way I understand, the new agent is pushed over, but the new agent (4.2) will be injected only after a JVM restart.
Copying over files, I have not copied over the profiles yet and hence all the agents are currently reporting but unmapped. I intent to copy over the profile as the next step.
I have two questions which are not clear in the Migration Guide
1. Will the existing 4.1 Agent in the JVM collect and report data till the restart happens.
2. Will a restart of the server and the collector automatically map the existing agents or will we need to restart all the agents.
Thanks,Rajesh
I think the second part I know, it will automatically map. thanks.
As your current 4.1 agents are not mapped to a System Profile they wont report any data. Only agents that are mapped report data. So - in your case. after you restart your JVMs they will be mapped to the imported System Profile. They will also be updated automatically and will then report data
