2. Important installation and usage notes

   • Valid active SMA is required for BVMS version upgrade on DIVAR IP. Before upgrading BVMS to a new version on DIVAR IP, please make sure you have appropriate licenses for the new version.

   • When using installers and software packages, follow installation instructions and observe installation pre-requisites, additional details and special notes in the corresponding Release notes.

   • For DIVAR IP 7000 R2 (DIP-71xx), DIVAR IP all-in-one 5000, and DIVAR IP all-in-one 7000 (DIP-72xx), no additional steps are required when upgrading to BVMS 11.1.1 and BVMS 12.0.0 with regular BVMS installer.

   • For DIVAR IP all-in-one 4000, DIVAR IP all-in-one 6000, and DIVAR IP all-in-one 7000 (DIP-73xx), managed by DIVAR IP System Manager or DIVAR IP Software Center utilities, special corresponding packages are required to upgrade BVMS on these devices.

   • For BVMS 12.0.1, no additional steps are required when upgrading BVMS on a DIVAR IP 7000 R2 (DIP-71xx) with regular BVMS installer. Note that for DIVAR IP all-in-one 5000 and DIVAR IP all-in-one 7000 (DIP-72xx), installation of the DIVAR IP System Manager is required, so that they can be upgraded to BVMS 12.0.1 and higher using special corresponding package.

   • Regular BVMS 12.0.1 and higher installer will not run on any DIVAR IP all-in-one platform. The upgrade shall be performed via DIVAR IP System Manager application.

   • For those DIVAR IP platforms and those upgrade steps where regular BVMS installer is used, the upgrade shall be done by following the BVMS upgrade procedure without changing any settings in the installation wizard.
     For such upgrades to BVMS versions below and including BVMS 11.0, respective patch needs to be installed after BVMS upgrade on DIVAR IP to ensure proper functionality.

   • Windows (Storage) Server 2012 R2 (64-bit), used in DIP-71xx, is only supported when updating your BVMS from version 10.1 or lower. MS SQL Server 2019, used as a standard version for BVMS 11.0 or higher, is not supported anymore on Windows (Storage) Server 2012 R2 (64-bit). Therefore, in case of an upgrade scenario, MS SQL Server will remain on version 2017 and such combination is still supported with BVMS 11.0 through BVMS 12.0.1. However, for this reason it is not possible to deploy new BVMS 11.0 or higher installation on Windows (Storage) Server 2012 R2, as MS SQL 2019 installation will fail.
     Windows (Storage) Server 2012 R2 (64-bit) is not supported for BVMS 12.1.0, and thus a DIP-71xx upgrade to this version is not supported.

   • To upgrade a DIP-73xx, managed by DIVAR IP Software Center and running previous versions of BVMS / VRM software, first upgrade it to BVMS 11.1.1 / VRM 4.03.025  versions with DIVAR IP Software Center package. Then install DIVAR IP System Manager application version 2.0.0 or higher, as described in its corresponding Release notes. After that, perform the software upgrade using, for example the BVMS 12.1.0 System Manager package 1.0 or further versions when available.

   • The naming convention of a package for DIVAR IP System Manager is designed to give understanding of its content, applicability for System Manager and own package release version. Customers are urged to use to the latest version of DIVAR IP System Manager application to install such packages.
