TMSPE installation

[gurch.jheeta]

Hi,

I am currently looking to roll out an upgrade of the follwing devices and needed some advice in which order the upgrade should consist. 

Currently -

TMS  12.6.2 + TMS Agents

VCSC (cluster)  - x6.1

Upgrading to -

TMS 13.2 + TMSPE

VCSC (cluster) - x7.2.1

The tmsng db is currently pointing to an external SQL server, I have made a note that a tmspe db will need to be created prior to the installation.  I have been advised that the TMSPE.exe needs to installed before I upgrade TMS and the VCS, could anyone confirm thsi??

Thanks

Hi Gurch,

You have to install TMS 13.2 prior to TMSPE installation.

Please read this document:

Hi

You can do it in this order for details, look in the documentations artem provided.

1. Break replication

2. Upgrade TMS to 13.2

3. Upgrade VCS to X7.2.1

4. Install TMSPE on the TMS server and migrate

5. Switch from TMS Agent to TMSPE on the TMS server and configure the communication with the VCS

6. Once everything is up and running, enable TMSPE on the VCS.
