IMPORTANT: Do not reboot the server during the update. The Data Center Expert update performs a data migration that takes under an hour for most systems. The data migration can take up to four hours if the system has thousands of devices and years of history.
Select the "Apply Server Update" option to import a server update package list file from your local machine, and install the server update.
-
Before beginning this procedure, you must have received an update notification from APC Support, and contacted them to download the appropriate update file.
-
In the Updates menu, select Apply Server Updates.
-
In the "Apply Server Update" display, click the Import button and navigate to the downloaded *.lst file. Click Open to list the available updates in the display.
-
Highlight the desired update and click Install Update. A dialog opens that states "Installing this update will cause the server to reboot. Would you like to continue?"
-
Click Yes to confirm your selection and begin the update process.
-
When the update is complete, users attempting to log in will receive a message stating that the client and server are different versions. A link will be provided to download the updated client from the server. Click the link to display the download page for the updated client.
-
Download and install the new client and log in to the updated server.
-
Open the Help menu and select the About menu item. The display should reflect the new server version.

Hi Nathaniel Wahlmeier,
Please contact your local technical support to assist with your DCE VM update. The current version is 7.9.2.
