When you upgrade the server, be sure to always upgrade agents and agent
relays.
About this task
The CodeStation request port is configured automatically on the system where the agent
relay is located. The CodeStation port number is one greater than the number assigned for
HTTP communication. By default, the HTTP port is 20080. If you use the default value for the
HTTP port, the CodeStation request port would be numbered 20081.
If the CodeStation request port is blocked, agents cannot download artifacts. If you
upgrade from versions before 6.1, ensure that the port is not blocked by the firewall or
other processes on the agent relay system.
Important: Beginning in version 6.2.2, the IBM® UrbanCode™ Deploy server and agent relays require Java™ Runtime Environment
(JRE) or Java Development Kit (JDK) version 8.
Important: After you upgrade to IBM UrbanCode Deploy version
6.2.2 or later, note these changes to agent relays:
- Users might notice that some agent relays are no longer listed in the user interface
even though they were able to view relays before the upgrade. The new version includes
updated security controls. The agent relays are still available to the users. However,
System Team administrators can assign agent relays to teams and set the View
Agent Relays permission for roles so that appropriate users can see the
agent relays in the user interface.
- Users can install and use agent relays. However, the relays are not listed in the user
interface for the user until a System Team administrator assigns the agent relay to
teams and sets the View Agent Relays permission.
