What are the considerations for upgrading?

Votes:

0

I am currently using 19.2.50.2842 version.

Can I upgrade directly from the current version to 20.3.62.1397 version?

There is no internet connection, so I can't use a Auto Update.

I am trying to update manually using a installer.

Should all PRTG Core and probe services be stopped before installing?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Jonathan,

You can directly update to the latest PRTG version. Please have a look at the following article for further information:
PRTG Manual: Update From Previous Versions.

You can download the latest version of PRTG in our shop using your account or on our website, which will also do the trick assured that you have a valid maintenance license key.

Best,
Sebastian

Does the installer check a activation during a installation without a Internet connection?

Or is it skipped because the existing activation is valid?

Hello Jonathan,

speaking for fresh PRTG installations, a system that is not able to automatically report its license state due to a missing internet connection needs to be manually activated after the installation. This does not apply to PRTG instances that are already successfully activated. Those does not need to be re-activated after an update.

Best,
Sebastian
