Automic Automation v26: Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU)

In this course, we explain and demonstrate the Zero Downtime Upgrade (ZDU) process, a mechanism that allows you to transition from Automic Automation v24 to v26 while your mission-critical workflows continue to execute. We will bridge the gap between manual file preparation and the automated Wizard execution, ensuring you have a fail-safe path to the latest features.

• Synchronize configuration settings between versions by migrating and updating .ini and .properties files, including SQL driver connections and JCP port offsets.
• Execute the System Upgrade Wizard to load v26 data structures and initiate compatibility and parallel processing modes.
• Manage the transition of Agents and Users from the base version to the target version through the Automic Web Interface.
• Validate a successful upgrade by monitoring process logs and clearing active executions before committing to the new version.
