Upgrade a Session Delivery Manager Standalone Server

Note:

Ensure that you are currently running SDM, Release 7.5M3. If you are running any version of SDM prior to Release 7.5M3, you cannot install SDM Release 8.0.

Use the following summary of tasks to upgrade your SDM standalone server:

1. Shut down your standalone SDM server. See the Shutdown the System section for more information.
2. See the Session Delivery Manager Software Distribution Media section in the Oracle Communications Session Delivery Manager Release Notes, Release 8.0 for more information about the names and descriptions of the software files that you need to do this upgrade.
3. Download the SDM application image file to the same base directory in which the Release 7.5M3 software was initially installed.
4. Unzip the application image file. See the Unzip the Tar File to Create the Installation Directory section for more information.
5. If you are upgrading Report Manager, the Oracle Database and Oracle BI Publisher must be running before you upgrade SDM so that Report Manager database data is migrated.
6. Start the installation.
