    Hi,

     

    we have JA2500 space node running old software version 15.1 and I needs to upgarde is to latest space version 18.2 and I know its step by step process to reach 18.2.

     

    How I can proceed with this upgrade , should I go through applications and start upgrading from Network Management Platform and then security director and then Logging.

     

    Can we do this to upgarde as globally which can also upgrade these three applications instead going through one by one upgrading applications.

    Hi Toufiq,

     

    From 15.1, you first need to go on 15.2R2 (You will have to upgrade your SD application on 15.2) and then from 15.2 to 16.1, it is a different upgrade as mentioned in below doc.

     

    https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos-space16.1/platform/topics/task/installation/junos-space-platform-16.1-upgrading.html

     

    Once you are on 16.1, you will again have to upgrade your SD application to compatible release.

    Junos Space Application Compatibility - Check this before upgrading: https://kb.juniper.net/InfoCenter/index?page=content&id=KB27572

     

    16.1 > 17.1 > 18.2 along with its applications.

     

    Always check for compatibility in release notes for respective application releases.

    If this worked for you please flag my post as an "Accepted Solution" so others can benefit.

    Hi, Thanks for your reply. So when u say SD applications its under Administration > Applications > Network Management Platform and Security director and logging. so 15.1 to 15.2 through applications 15.2 - 16.1 Full upgrade as per document 16.1 - 16.2 appliations 16.2.- 17.1 Full upgrade 17.1-17.2 applications 17.2 - 18.1 Full upgrade So when we do from 15.1 to 15.2 what software needs to upload and upgrade, I downloaded 15.2R2.image files so I can use this for Network Management application upgrade and same for Security director and logging one by one

    Yes, SD = Security Director, it will install/upgrade its sub-applications listed below.

    Security Director:Logging and Reporting

    NSM Migration

    Log Director

    Application Visibility

     

    First, you will have to upgrade Network Management application to 15.2R2 using below link:

    And then for Security Director 15.2R2 upgrade : Security Director (https://www.juniper.net/support/downloads/?p=spacesecdir)

    Hi,

     

    How I can perform Space Data Backup mentioned in upgrade document.

    So this backup means all the firewall rules and NAT rules addresses and services backing up.

     

    Or the DB Backup like My SQL and other services backup.

     

    From Document I cant find the directory below directories, I can go till    cd /var/cache/  but no space-backup-restore inside

     

    /var/cache/space-backup-restore directory:

    cd /var/cache/space-backup-restore

    Posted 07-04-2018 18:53

    First you need to run backup script mentioned in Downloading and Installing the Junos Space Platform 15.2R2 Patch : https://www.juniper.net/documentation/en_US/junos-space16.1/platform/topics/task/installation/junos-space-platform-16.1-upgrading.html#download-install-patch  Step 8: sh patchme.sh

     

    Then only you can see /var/cache/space-backup-restore

     

    This backup will contain all space data.

    Thanks,

     

    Actually  I already run that patch and got below response.

     

    [root@space-0319032016000021 15.2R2-hotpatch-v11]# sh patchme.sh
    Patch 15.2R2-hotpatch-v11 already installed.

    PR1173658(EMS-NBI - 1 - Critical - REST API - Managed-Element query contains inc                                     orrect equipment holders reference)

     

     

    But when I go inside  as below , I cant see backup-restore file under cache as below.

     

    [root@space-0319032016000021 cache]# pwd
    /var/cache

    You are running a wrong patch, the one you ran is hot patch, you should run 15.2R2.2-SpaceUpgradeBackup.tgz.

    Link for backup patch: https://webdownload.juniper.net/swdl/dl/secure/site/1/record/64306.html

    Posted 07-04-2018 21:24

    Yes Thanks this one works.

     

    Since I dont have FTP server so can can I use winscp software to copy backup files from space to my computre.

     

    and 2ndly after backup process space gone under maintenance page and not in normal login page.

    Posted 07-04-2018 21:31

    Going into maintenance mode is normal as it stop jboss service, you can exit from maintenance mode after your backup is complete.



  • 15.  RE: Junos Space Upgrade - 15.1 - 18.2

    Posted 07-04-2018 21:36

    Thanks,

     

    Now I can see its coming up.

     

    So Can I do WinScp from space to my local computer like simpe copy and paste files from space to my computer through WINScp as I dont have FTP server and not on the site to connect USB.



  • 16.  RE: Junos Space Upgrade - 15.1 - 18.2

     
    Posted 07-04-2018 21:43

    Yes, while backup give the location of your junos space server itself (2.Remote SCP server)and once the backup is complete using winscp copy backup file to your local machine.

     

    For 16.1 upgrade, you will have to re-image the junos space box using USB and while deployment you will get an option to restore this 15.2R2 backup, refer 16.1 upgrade doc above.

    Posted 07-05-2018 14:04

    Thanks,

     

    I added port 22 and it works

    so still going process



  • 19.  RE: Junos Space Upgrade - 15.1 - 18.2

    Posted 07-11-2018 07:42

    You can absolutely take the backup via SCP. On a JA-2500, you can also do so via USB. I have some rough notes on the upgrade process over yonder: https://yorickdowne.wordpress.com/2017/08/05/junos-space-upgrade-to-16-1r2/

    That's absolutely meant to be used with Juniper's upgrade instructions, not as a standalone guide.

    Edit: Be aware that as of 7-11-2018, Security Director 18.2R1 has not been released. Once you upgrade all the way to SPACE 18.2, you'll need Security Director 18.2 as well. Security Director 18.1R2 is not supported on SPACE 18.2.

    Hi,

     

    Thanks for the update otherwise I was going to 18.2 release.

     

    Now I will upgrade till 17.2 only and wait for 18.2 security director to be released and then will move to 18.2 release.

    Hi,

     

    Just  question, how many types of backup I needs. I already took one backup by running spacebackup patch file.

    I needs to have backup of existing configurations like addresses , services , NAT and firewall polcies.

    And 2nd backup of space itself like SQL and other applications settings to operate the space normally.

     

     

    1 -  Configurations Backup Like addresses , Services, NAT and firewall policies

    2 - Space node operating system back like SQL etc

     

    Do we needs to have second back as  I already took below backup files through spacebackup patch file.

     

    a) space-15.2R2.4.tgz

    b) md5.txt

    c) space-readme.txt

    d) backup status.log

    Hi,

    You just need one backup from using spacebackup patch file which you have already taken I guess.
