Upgrade a LogRhythm Disaster Recovery Deployment

This document describes the upgrade procedure for LogRhythm Disaster Recovery (DR) systems to the current version of LogRhythm SIEM using the LogRhythm Database Upgrade Tool and the LogRhythm Install Wizard. The Database Upgrade Tool upgrades your LogRhythm databases, and the Install Wizard upgrades the LogRhythm components.

Starting with LogRhythm 7.8, the High Availability (HA) and Disaster Recovery (DR) software was decoupled from the SIEM software. There will no longer be a new upgrade package provided for HA/DR with every SIEM release.
