Description This article describes how to upgrade OS packages in a FortiSOAR instance running on Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Scope FortiSOAR.
Solution

For users who are using FortiSOAR installed on Rocky Linux, the FortiSOAR team issues security patches to manage the OS packages.

Users who are using FortiSOAR installed on RHEL are required to manage the OS packages themselves by running the following steps to upgrade the OS packages:

  1. Login to the FortiSOAR VM and switch to the 'root' user: sudo su.
  2. Take a snapshot of the current state of the VM.
  3. Stop fortisoar-related services using the following command:

 

csadm services --stop

 

  1. Disable the FortiSOAR yum repository using the following command:


dnf config-manager --set-disabled fsr-app
dnf config-manager --set-disabled fsr-connectors

 

  1. Run the following yum command to upgrade the OS packages:


yum upgrade --exclude="php*"

 

  1. Enable the FortiSOAR yum repository using the following command:


dnf config-manager --set-enabled fsr-app
dnf config-manager --set-enabled fsr-connectors

 

  1. Start fortisoar-related services using the following command:


csadm services --start

 

  1. Run the needs-restarting –r command to check if the system needs a reboot to apply the latest OS packages.
    If the command suggests a reboot, then reboot the system.
