ServiceHost Upgrades Prior to Simphony Release 2.8

When upgrading from Simphony clients prior to release 2.8, the ServiceHost 2.7 CAL deployment must not be removed until the new version of the ServiceHost package has finished installing. Otherwise, all previously installed CAL packages are re-deployed.

Recommended workaround:

  1. Keep the existing ServiceHost 2.7 deployment record and change the deployment type Property to Enterprise, for each record that exists.
  2. Configure a new ServiceHost deployment at the Property or Service Host level to the deployment schedule.
  3. Remove the ServiceHost 2.7 deployment only when the new ServiceHost version has been completed.

    Applies to: All releases later than 2.7
