If you want to upgrade products in a single environment using Command Central, follow the instructions in this guide. If you are not using software stacks, you can watch a demo relating to upgrade in the Command Central area of the Software AG TECHcommunity website. You can also read an article on generating keystores and certificates for Command Central in the same area. You can read articles and watch webinars about upgrading with Command Central on the Software AG TECHcommunity website.

If you want to fully automate product upgrade for multiple similar environments using Command Central, see the composite template instructions in Software AG Command Central Help. You can reconfigure endpoints such as host names and ports by adding actions in the templates. You will still need to perform the manual tasks in this guide if you cannot script them.

You can use Command Central software stacks to simplify upgrade now and in the future, as the upgrade procedure for stacks is simpler than the procedure for standalone product installations. A software stack is a set of product runtimes and related database components that serve one or more purposes, such as application integration, API management, or business process management. Software stacks enable you to use Command Central to create, monitor, and maintain multiple product installations using bulk operations. The stack upgrade feature is available in the Command Central GUI and lets you automatically generate composite templates that you can then use to upgrade a single environment or to automate the upgrade of multiple environments. Follow the instructions for upgrading software stacks in this guide.
