Upgrade 6.7.5 to 7

[Ezzat]

I would like to upgrade FortiSIEM from 6.7.5 to 7, do we have first to upgrade the linux os from centos to rockey or this will already be done when we do the upgrade steps ?

Hi Chris,
Is the collector image to be uploaded via the GUI the same file that I used to upgrade the Supervisor and worker? The file: FSM_Upgrade_All_7.0.2_build0043.zip.

Hi Jesisidabuliu,

Yes, it's the same file.

May I know how to shut down Workers ..? in the fortiSIEM UI

Hi @Jesisidabuliu ,

There is no option to shutdown workers from GUI. 

You can use below command to stop processes and then shutdown from worker CLI:

# phxctl stop

# shutdown -h now

Hi Prem Chander R,
Thank you for the reply ... can i use this command instead?
phtools --STOP ALL 

and do i need to restart the worker after the upgrade? any command for that?

Hi,

Yes you can use phtools command as well. 

The worker or any FSM node would be automatically rebooted after upgrade completes. 

For anytime you want to reboot a Fortisiem Node, you can use below command:
# phxctl reboot

Hi Prem Chander R, 
To upgrade Supervisor , I have to run the stop worker command in Worker CLI or in Supervisor CLI.
They are running in 2 diff virtual server.

Hi @Jesisidabuliu , 

You would need to shutdown the worker, from worker CLI and then begin super upgrade.  

SSH to worker:

# phtools --stop ALL

# shutdown -h now
