  1. Module 6: Upgrading Unidesk components

  2. Agenda • Downloading and unpacking the bits • Preparing the environment • MA and MCP Upgrades • Updating the VIA Broker Agent • CP Upgrades • Replacing the CP Template

  3. Downloading the Bits • Use the Unidesk installer to download a package for later use:

  4. Upgrade Bits • Upgrade code is buried in the install packages you get when running the Unidesk installer • The following are needed from that package: • MA-Update ISO • CP-Update ISO • CP-template • Un-ZIP the CP template

  5. Connecting the Upgrade Media • Both upgrade ISOs are connected to the MA • You can do one at a time – Upgrade the MA, then the CPs. But the MA has two CD devices to allow connections for both ISO files. • Ensure the CD-ROM devices are “Connected” in the VM’s settings for the MA.

  6. Upgrade Unidesk • System tab – Select Upgrade in Action Menu on the right • This queries the ISO/CD-ROM devices and checks available code there against MA and CPs • Preferred Upgrade Path: • Upgrade MA first • VIA Agent upgrades (Broker integration) • Upgrade Master CP • Upgrade remaining CPs

  7. Upgrade the VIA Agent • Update the View or XenDT servers with the new Unidesk VIA Agent AFTER the MA is upgraded • Located in “Unidesk Broker Integration Tools” zip in the install Media • Stop the UniVIA service on the broker • Install on each connection server or XenDT DDC.

  8. What about the desktops? • No Unidesk desktop needs to be touched by the administrator! • Image preparation utilities installed in the gold-image are just that, image prep. • Any Unidesk drivers required will be updated automatically next BIC for the desktops.

  9. Replacing the CP Template • CP Template is used for any new CP deployments • Un-ZIP the CP template and you are presented with an OVF to import into vCenter and convert to a template • Import the new CP Template and change the CP Template settings in the System – Settings and Configuration tabs

  10. Common Issues • “No upgrade is available” • System already upgraded OR you CDs are not “connected” • Newly Deployed CPs are “old code” • CachePoint Template was not updated.

  11. Open Q&A
