Licensing CWMS 3.0 Upgrade

[Gura24]

Hello,

I want to upgrade the CWMS 2.8 to 3.0, do I also need new licenses? Normally, the version has to be specified to the license.

Thanks for help!

Yes, I need new licences! With the order of the upgrade you also get a new PAK file.

Hi Gura,

When you upgrade CWMS 2.8 to 3.0, do you need to redeploy using new ova file?

Thanks.

Hi,

this task is long time ago but I remember I used a new OVA file and copied the VMDK file of old VM to new deployment.

Keep in mind, you need a lot of disk space ;) I remember I went out of space and got into a small trouble during upgrade process.
