  • 1.  "Delay the reboot" Upgrades

    Posted 02-02-2024 03:16:00 PM

    Probably an obvious question, but, if an upgrade is run with the "delay the reboot" option, is it required to manually reboot the Delphix engine before doing the next upgrade?

    Hello David,

    No, the reboot will not be required.  You can continue and upgrade to another version after using the "Delay the Reboot" for you prior upgrade.

    Hi David,

    A reboot is not required after a "delay the reboot" upgrade for the next version upgrade. You can execute  "delay the reboot"  indefinitely unless "VDB Downtime Required" is required per the Upgrade Matrix

    Hi David

    To provide some further information beyond what was already provided by my colleagues, you may want to refer to the Fixed Issues section of our documentation

    For each release you will see a Fixes that take effect after upgrading and rebooting and Fixes that take effect immediately after upgrading section.

    Only if you are affected by a bug listed in the Fixes that take effect after upgrading and rebooting section do you need to carry out the reboot/Apply Now upgrade.

    As Newton and Michael have already suggested, if not you can continue using the Delay the Reboot option indefinitely
