To have the latest release of Security Center 5.13, you can upgrade from an earlier minor version of 5.13 to 5.13.2.0 after you’ve completed the preparation steps.

Before you begin

NOTE: Omnicast Federation is disabled as of 5.12.0.0 and is no longer supported. Remove all Omnicast Federation roles before upgrading your system. See Removing Omnicast Federation before upgrading Security Center for more information.

What you should know

You don’t need to change your license when you upgrade from an earlier minor version of 5.13 to 5.13.2.0 because they share the same major version.

Previous installation choices, such as language and installation types are preserved, and the InstallShield Wizard doesn't ask for them again.

Procedure

  1. Upgrade your main server to Security Center 5.13.2.0 .
  2. Upgrade your expansion servers to Security Center 5.13.2.0 , according to your priorities.
  3. Upgrade your client workstations to Security Center 5.13.2.0 , according to your priorities.

After you finish

If the file AllowedSynchronizationConfiguration.xml was used to set the synchronization times of your HID VertX units, the settings must be re-applied manually from Config Tool after the upgrade.
Tip: Configure one unit with the required synchronization settings, then use the Copy configuration tool to set the same settings on multiple units.
