Upgrading remarks

Before you begin to upgrade agents using HCL BigFix, consider the following items:

  • Make sure that you have at least 2 GB of free space under the root directory or filesystem (depending on your operating system).
  • If on an agent there is more than one IBM Workload Scheduler instance, more than one baseline or Fixlet might be relevant for that agent. Make sure that you apply the baseline or Fixlet in the correct order and that you wait for an action to complete before starting a new one, because only one single action can be taken on the same agent at the same time.
  • If there is more than one IBM Workload Scheduler instance installed on an agent; when you run a Fixlet to upgrade to a later level, this upgrade is made on one instance at a time, starting with the first one listed in the IBM Workload Scheduler registry. You cannot select a specific agent.
