Download the LogRhythm Database Upgrade Tool

The Database Upgrade Tool is packaged in a .ZIP archive. After downloading the archive, copy it to each XM appliance or server that you want to upgrade, and then extract the contents of the archive into a new directory.

Download the LogRhythm Install Wizard

The LogRhythm Install Wizard can install any supported combination of the LogRhythm components on an appliance or server.

The Install Wizard is packaged in a .ZIP archive. After downloading the archive, copy it to each appliance or server that you want to upgrade, and then extract the contents of the archive into a new directory. Each of the LogRhythm component installers are included with the Install Wizard. They can be found in the Installers directory where you extracted the archive.

"7.x" in the table below refers to the current version of the LogRhythm SIEM. Refer to the LogRhythm Installations and Upgrades homepage for the current SIEM version.

Download the Linux Data Indexer Installer

For users who are upgrading one or more Linux Data Indexers, run the LogRhythm package installer on your existing Indexer system. You can download the .run package installer from the LogRhythm Community. The file is named LRDataIndexer-.version.x86_64.run.

After downloading the installer, use a program like WinSCP to copy it to the logrhythm user’s home directory on one of your Indexer appliances (for example, /home/logrhythm/Soft). When connecting to the Indexer system to transfer the file, connect as the logrhythm user.

When upgrading the Linux Indexer, note the following:

• Your cluster can contain 1 or 3-10 physical hot nodes (must contain at least 1 hot node), and 1-10 warm nodes (optional).

• You only need to run the package installer on one of the cluster nodes.

• You should run the upgrade installer on the same server where you ran the original installer.

• Each Indexer appliance or server in a cluster must be of identical specification. For example, the same appliance model, or same configuration of processors, hard drives, network interfaces, and RAM.
