Upgrading Toolpack
There are three types of upgrades to Toolpack: minor upgrades, major upgrades, and license upgrades. A fourth type of intervention is a system reconfiguration.
It is considered a major upgrade when changing to a full release version or a major point release (e.g., v1 to v2 or v2.2 to v2.3). Please note that major upgrades require service interruption.
It is considered a minor upgrade when moving, for example, from upgrading a minor point release (e.g., v2.3.1 to v2.3.2). Minor upgrades can be done without service interruption if the system is HA.
A license upgrade activates new functionality or capacity in the system. Example of license upgrades include adding SS7 signalling or unlocking additional IVR capabilities.
A system reconfiguration is required when:
- Upgrading to a multi-host system.
- Upgrading to a database HA system.
- Modifying basic parameters like TbxGwPort, TbxGwAddr0, TbxGwAddr1.
- Modifying configuration databases parameters.
