Upgrading Dr.Web Server from versions 12 to version 13 is available via the Control Center. The procedure is described in the Administrator Manual, in the Updating Dr.Web Server and Restoring it from Backup section. |
Before updating Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite and its components, please note the following important features:
•Before updating, it is recommended to check the validity of TCP/IP protocol configuration for the internet access. Particularly, DNS service must be enabled and properly configured.
•Before upgrading Dr.Web Server, it is recommended that all of the Dr.Web Enterprise Security Suite components (Dr.Web Agent included) are upgraded to the latest version available at GUS.
•In multiserver anti-virus network configuration, consider that interserver updates transmission is not performed between Dr.Web Servers of 13 version and Dr.Web Servers of previous versions and interserver connection is used for transmission statistics only. To provide interserver updates transmission, you must upgrade all Dr.Web Servers. If Dr.Web Servers of previous version are required as a part of the anti-virus network to connect Dr.Web Agents installed on operating systems which are not supported by the 13 version (see Upgrading Dr.Web Agent), then Dr.Web Servers of versions 6 and Dr.Web Servers of the 13 version must receive updates independently.
•Upgrade of Dr.Web Server cluster from version 11 to version 13 shall be performed individually, meaning each cluster node shall be disconnected from the cluster, switched over to embedded database, updated and connected back to the cluster one by one.
•For the anti-virus network containing Dr.Web Proxy Server, at upgrade of the components up to the version 13, you must also upgrade the Proxy Server up to the version 13. Otherwise, Dr.Web Agents supplied within version 13 will not be able to connect to Dr.Web Server of version 13. It is recommended to perform the upgrade in the following order: Dr.Web Server → Dr.Web Proxy Server → Dr.Web Agent.
•At upgrading Dr.Web Server, all repository settings will not be transferred to the new version (will be reset to defaults), however they are backed up. If necessary, specify the repository settings manually after the Dr.Web Server upgrade.
•By default, after installing Dr.Web Server version 13, updates of the Dr.Web for Android virus databases, Content filter databases for UNIX and Dr.Web Proxy Server repository products are downloaded from GUS only when these products are requested from stations. For more details, see Administrator Manual, Detailed Repository Configuration.
If your Dr.Web Server is not connected to the internet, and updates are loaded manually from another Dr.Web Server or using the Repository Loader, before installing or updating products with the Update on demand only option, you must first manually load these products to the repository.
