You must perform this upgrade on a standalone server system that is outside all clusters and available on the local network. The system must currently host the CommandCentral Availability management server (predecessor to the Cluster Management Console management server). Symantec Product Authentication Service, a shared component, is installed during management server upgrade. If an older version of the service is installed, it is upgraded to the latest version.
This procedure follows a script of a successful upgrade. If at any step you experience a result other than the expected result that is documented here, you can click "n" to re-enter information. If you continue to have problems, click "q" to quit the installation and then verify the installation prerequisites.
