Hi Team,

 

Is there a procedure to upgrade from 11.32 or 11.34 to 11.36?
I had some impressions and thus the need to ask the following questions arose.
1- I want to upgrade from 11.32 or 11.34. It is said that a system that performs pre-upgrade check has arrived and the latest patch for Windows and SQL Server must be installed. Even though the latest patch is installed, the error persists.
2- As far as I see in the document, 11.36 only uses SQL Server 2022.
3- In this case, when I want to upgrade SQL Server itself directly from 2016 or 2019 to 2022, I get an error again.
4- First, DR Backup will be taken, then Commvault and SQL Server will be uninstalled. After reinstalling 11.36, the DBs taken with DR Backup will be shown to the environment, is this correct?

This seems correct. SQL2022 CU14 is certified and required for 11.36.

 

I’m currently researching the same, for 11.32 → 11.36.

 

Problem is that there is no procedure for clustered Commserve’s , which require you to manually install SQL Server (not with the Commvault installer)

 

Ideally, I’d want SQL Server updated a few days BEFORE I actually upgrade to 11.36 … ?    But it sounds like I’d be re-installing the CS twice?  first 11.32 again for the SQL upgrade, then again once I move to 11.36 … 

 

Got a support ticket open for more guidance/steps

@osakanataro Did you download and upgrade from the CommCell GUI or do you have to download the full media kit with SQL?
