Visual overview of the update process for multiple environments.

Install Nodinite v7

Tip

If you have a non-prod environment, test the upgrade process there first. This lets you validate all steps and configurations before applying them to production.

This guide assumes you already have Nodinite version 7 installed, potentially with Monitoring Agents and Log Agents.

Important

You must know the account names and their passwords and have administrative rights on the Nodinite Application Server to perform the update.

Prerequisites

Before you begin the update process, ensure you have the following prerequisites in place:

  • Inform end-users about the update and potential downtime.
  • Backup your Nodinite databases and configuration files. This is crucial to prevent data loss in case of any issues during the update.
  • Existing Nodinite v7 installation with Monitoring Agents and Log Agents configured. Everything will be updated to the latest version.
  • Valid Nodinite 7 product key available in the Nodinite Portal. If it has expired or is nearing expiry, create a new one. If you cannot do this, contact your partner or Nodinite Support.
  • The Prerequisites for Installing Nodinite v7 must be met.
  • Network access: Ensure the Nodinite Application Server can reach the outbound hosts listed in Prerequisites for Installing Nodinite v7. The same allowlist applies to portal downloads, version metadata, and optional direct MSI downloads for remote server installation.

Estimated time

On a high level, there are a few distinct steps in the update process:

Running the CLI commands typically takes a few minutes. This estimate includes updating all Monitoring Agents and Log Agents.

Step 2: Download/Extract ZIP (Core and Agents)

Tip

Download the CLI bundle ZIP for the selected environment.

  1. Click the Download button in the environment overview:
    Download
    The Download button is available directly in the environment list for quick access.

    Alternatively, you can click the Actions button and select Download from the menu.
    Action Download
    The Download option is also available in the Actions menu.

  2. The download will begin immediately. Save the ZIP file to your preferred location.
    Downloading
    Example of the downloading process in the browser.

Step 3: Run the CLI workflow

Tip

Run commands from an elevated PowerShell 7 prompt in the extracted ZIP bundle root.

Use this recommended workflow:

  1. Validate the package without changing the machine:
.\Nodinite.Installer.Cli.exe validate --config .\localhost\config.cli.json
  1. Run a dry-run to check install/update actions:
.\Nodinite.Installer.Cli.exe deploy-environment --config ".\localhost\config.cli.json" --dry-run
  1. Deploy after validation and dry-run are clean:
.\Nodinite.Installer.Cli.exe deploy-environment --config ".\localhost\config.cli.json"

If you need runtime overrides, pass arguments instead of editing generated files. Common examples include --database-connection-string, --agent-connection-string, and --service-password.

After deployment, browse the Web Client and perform basic verification checks.
