Upgrading the Portal with additional licensed modules

If you have purchased licenses for additional modules, the following procedures provide the steps to create the necessary database tables.

Upgrade Scenarios

  • Adding File Analytics, Capacity Manager, Fabric Manager, and Virtualization Manager

  • Adding Backup Manager

  • Adding new subsystems to existing Capacity Manager

  • Adding new subsystems to an existing Backup Manager

Most APTARE IT Analytics licensed modules use the same set of instructions to upgrade the Portal with new licensed modules, upgrade existing licensed modules, and add subsystem support.

Backup Manager requires an additional step to add specific subsystems, such as EMC Avamar. Capacity Manager automatically adds new subsystem support through the standard upgrade process.
