Upgrade the Security Intelligence 1.0 Using the CLI

You must use the Security Intelligence CLI when upgrading your Security Intelligence 1.0 installation to Security Intelligence version 1.1 or later.

Beginning with Security Intelligence version 1.1, you upgrade the Security Intelligence version 1.1 or later appliance using the NSX Manager UI only. Although you can upgrade from version 1.1 of the appliance using the CLI, that CLI upgrade process does not include important pre-upgrade checks. See Upgrade the Security Intelligence 1.1 Using the UI.

To upgrade from Security Intelligence 1.0.x to Security Intelligence 3.2 or later, you must first upgrade your current installation to Security Intelligence 1.2.x using the Security Intelligence 1.0.x CLI. You must then use the NSX Manager 3.1.x UI to upgrade to Security Intelligence 3.2 or later.

Precaución:

When using the CLI method to upgrade the Security Intelligence appliance, do not forcefully end the SSH session or press Ctrl+C. Doing so ends the upgrade process and might leave the Security Intelligence appliance in an unhealthy state.

Requisitos previos

Download the Security Intelligence upgrade bundle (.nub) file. See Descargar el paquete de actualización de Security Intelligence.
Verify that there is free space in the /tmp partition in the Security Intelligence host. The free space must be at least the size of the .nub upgrade bundle file that you downloaded.
Also verify that there is at least twice the size of the .nub upgrade bundle file or 4 GB of free space in the /image partition in the Security Intelligence host.

Procedimiento

Log in to your Security Intelligence appliance using the CLI admin credentials that you had set up during the previous Security Intelligence appliance deployment.
```
$ssh admin@<Security Intelligence IP Address> 
```
From the Security Intelligence command line, use the following command to copy the Security Intelligence.nub upgrade file from where you downloaded it.
```
copy url <url_to_NSX_intelligence_upgrade_nub>
```
Following is an example, using a Security Intelligence version 1.2 .nub file.
```
copy url http://localserver/VMware-NSX-Intelligence-appliance-1.2.0.0.0.16730870.nub
```

Verify the upgrade bundle using the following command.

Sugerencia:

Press Tab after entering upgrade-bundle and the <upgrade_bundle_name> is auto-filled.

verify upgrade-bundle upgrade_bundle_name

Following is a sample output for updating the verify upgrade-bundle command.

Upgrade the Security Intelligence 1.0.x appliance using the Security Intelligence Playbook.

Sugerencia:

Press Tab after entering upgrade-bundle and the <upgrade_bundle_name> is auto-filled. Press Tab after entering playbook and the <nsx_intelligence_playbook_name> is auto-populated.

start upgrade-bundle <upgrade_bundle_name> playbook <nsx_intelligence_playbook_name>

Nota:

If the /data partition is large, the step to copy data from that partition might take some time to finish if the partition is large.

The system reboots as part of the upgrade process, as shown in the following example.
