Introduction

The terms update and upgrade, in relation to client XTM Cloud servers, have different meanings in the XTM Cloud software environment, and distinguishing between them properly prevents unnecessary confusion. It is therefore vital for you to know what they specifically refer to.

In such a case, the update pattern looks like this:

v.1213.9 5 (old package) -> v.1213.9 5 (new package)

Info

The total time reserved for the update process is 2 hours.

...

Upgrade

The upgrading of the server consists of moving a server up to a completely new XTM Cloud version. The upgrade is usually to the newest XTM Cloud package version of that XTM Cloud version.

In such a case, the upgrade pattern is as follows:

v.1213.9 5 -> v.13.06
