Can you update 4.1 to 5.x from the IPSMC?

[mkirbyii]

I am running IPSMC 2.1 with Sp1-6, I am trying to upgrade 4.1 sensors from the IPS mc and they fail. I am upgrading by going to <configuration->updates->choose->IPS-K9-maj-5.0-1-S149.zip>

It fails each time with the following error:An error occurred while running the update script on the sensor named BORV. Detail = An error occurred at the sensor during the update, sensor message = Connection failed

If I ssh to the sensor and run the upgrade command it works just fine. Any ideas? I have 20 sensors to upgrade and do not want to do it manually.

Thanks in advance

Can you ssh to the sensor from the MC box? If so, I'd suggest testing the MC-Sensor synchronization before attempting the 4.1(5) upgrade. You can try querying each sensor and pushing a trivial updated config (i.e. change alarm severety of one sig). If you're able to do this, you should be able to apply the 4.1(5) upgrade via MC.
