AIQUM upgrade 9.11 to 9.16

Hi,

Acording to the documents I have read I need an intermeadiate step for my upgrade. I can only find 9.16.

How can I access downloads and docs for 9.13?

Can I upgrade 9.11 to 9.13 or do I need 9.12 as well?

Thank you,

Richard

Not all versions of Unified Manager can perform an in-place upgrade to later versions. The Unified Manager upgrades are limited to an N-2 model, meaning an upgrade can only be performed within the next 2 releases on all platforms. For example, you can perform an upgrade to Unified Manager 9.16 from Unified Manager 9.13 and 9.14 only. So in your case, you would have to upgrade from 9.11 to 9.13 to 9.16 (9.15 does not exist).

9.13 docs: https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/active-iq-unified-manager-913/include/upgrade-path.html

9.13 download: https://mysupport.netapp.com/site/products/all/details/activeiq-unified-manager/downloads-tab/download/62791/9.13

I hope this helps.

Thank you. That is very helpful. I discovered there is a 9.13P1 which I will go with.
