To upgrade to OpsCenter 2.1.3:

These steps describe installing the new OpsCenter package and restarting the opscenterd daemon.

  1. On the OpsCenter daemon host, run the appropriate command to update the packages:

    Debian/Ubuntu:

    # apt-get update

    RHEL/CentOS:

    # yum clean all

  2. Install the upgraded OpsCenter package:

    Debian/Ubuntu:

    # apt-get install opscenter

    RHEL/CentOS:

    # yum install opscenter

  3. If the package manager prompts you for options regarding opscenterd.conf, choose to keep your currently installed version.

  4. Restart the OpsCenter daemon.

    # service opscenterd restart
