If primary and backup upgrades are complete

If you have completed the upgrade to both the primary and backup servers, do the following:

  1. Make sure the primary server is powered up.
  2. Run Server Control Panel. You can do this at the local server or through the K2 System Configuration application. Make sure Server Control Panel shows green LEDs and that the first server on which you upgraded software is still the current primary server.
  3. Put the backup server in service as follows:
    1. Run Server Control Panel. You can do this at the local server or through the K2 System Configuration application. The Failover Monitor should currently be off on the backup server, as this is the normal state of the service at system startup.
    2. Use the Start button on Server Control Panel. This makes the backup server qualified to take the role of media file system/database server.
    3. Make sure that Server Control Panel shows green LEDs and that servers are correctly taking primary/backup roles.

Next upgrade any remaining K2 Media Servers.
