NOTE:After upgrading the zone, ZooKeeper is enabled on the Primary Server that is first updated. For more information see, Post-Upgrade Configurations.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use the ZENworks System Update to upgrade the Primary Servers to ZENworks 2020Update 2.
Before upgrading the ZENworks server on a Windows device, run the Windows Update on the device to ensure that all the available updates are installed on the device. Subsequently, disable the Windows Update to ensure that there are no further updates on the device when you upgrade the ZENworks server on the device. Windows Update can be enabled after upgrading ZENworks.
Disable the Linux Update to ensure that there are no further updates on the device when you upgrade the ZENworks server on the device.
On the Windows Primary Server, run icacls "%zenworks_home%\cache" /remove:d Users command as a super user.
Perform the following procedure on the Primary Server that you want to upgrade to ZENworks 2020 Update 2, if all the prerequisites are met:
To start the ZENworks upgrade program:
Linux: Do the following:
Download the ZENworks upgrade ISO image from the Micro Focus Download site.
Mount the ISO by running the command mount -o loop <ISO path including name> <mount_path>
cd to the mounted location and run ./setup.sh.
Windows: Do one of the following:
Download the ZENworks upgrade ISO image from the Micro Focus Download site.
Mount the ISO.
Run setup.exe.
Open a DOS window, browse to the root of the ZENworks 2020 Update 2 installation media, then enter the setup.exe command.
During upgrade, see Table 2-1, Upgrade Information for details on the upgrade data.
If you are using the GUI upgrade, you can also click the Help button for similar information.
Do one of the following on the Windows device:
If you selected to reboot automatically (you selected the Yes, restart the system option during the upgrade; see Restarting the Server (applicable only for Windows)), continue with Step 5 after the booting process has completed and the services have started.
If you selected to reboot manually (you selected the No, I will restart the system myself option during the upgrade; see Restarting the Server (applicable only for Windows)), wait for the upgrade to complete and the services to start in order to verify it.
After the upgrade, the ZENworks Server data will be copied from the old Novell file path to the new Micro Focus file path. However, the ZENworks Server data in the old file path is retained during the upgrade process. After verifying whether the upgraded version of the ZENworks Server is working as expected, you can run the cleanup utility provided with the build, to remove the retained server data. For more information, see Running the Cleanup Utility on a Linux or Appliance Server.
To upgrade another Primary Server, repeat from Step 1.
IMPORTANT:Repeat these steps until all Primary Servers in the Management Zone are upgraded.
NOTE:If you are using ZENworks Reporting, then after upgrading the zone to ZENworks 2020 Update 2, ensure that you reconfigure ZENworks reporting. For more information, see Reconfiguring ZENworks Reporting Appliance in the ZENworks Reporting Appliance Deployment and Administration Reference.

After upgrade, the ZENworks server configuration will be copied from the old Novell file path to the new Micro Focus file path. However, the ZENworks server binaries and old configuration in the old file path is retained during the upgrade process. After verifying whether the upgraded version of the ZENworks Server is working as expected, you can run the cleanup utility provided with the build, to remove the retained server data. The topics covered in this section are as follows:
After a successful upgrade, you can now go ahead and view the changes introduced in this release:
Example:
Log Files: The log files will now be available in the new Micro Focus path (/var/opt/microfocus/log/zenworks).
The log files in the old Novell path (/var/opt/novell/log/zenworks) will also be retained. These files will not be deleted even after you run the cleanup utility.
NOTE:All new server related log files that are generated after the upgrade, will be available only in the new Micro Focus file path and not in the old Novell file path.
Conf Files: The configuration files for only the ZENworks Server will now be available in the new Micro Focus path (/etc/opt/microfocus/zenworks).
The configuration files for both the server and the agent will also be retained in the old Novell path (/etc/opt/novell/zenworks). When you run the cleanup utility, the configuration files related to the ZENworks Server will be deleted from the old path. However, the files related to the ZENworks agent will be retained in the old path.
Libraries: The libraries for only the ZENworks Server will now be available in the new Micro Focus path (/opt/microfocus/zenworks).
The libraries for both the server and the agent will also be retained in the old Novell path (/opt/novell/zenworks). When you run the cleanup utility, the libraries related to the ZENworks Server will be deleted from the old path.
Configure actions have been renamed from Novell to Micro Focus. For example, the configure action novell-zenworks-configure -c CalibrateMemoryConfigureAction is now renamed to microfocus-zenworks-configure -c CalibrateMemoryConfigureAction. Configure actions that follow the Novell naming convention have been deprecated in this release and will be available along with the Configure actions that follow the Micro Focus naming convention.
ZENworks Server services have been renamed from Novell to Micro Focus. For example, novell-zenserver.service is renamed to microfocus-zenserver.service. Similarly, services such as novell-zenloader.service and novell-zenjoinproxy.service are renamed to microfocus-zenloader.service and microfocus-zenjoinproxy.service, respectively
However, the old service names will still be displayed but will be inactive. You can run the cleanup utility to remove the old server services.
Therefore, while using the systemctl commands to start or stop services, ensure that you use the renamed services in the command.
NOTE:Some services such as novell-zenworks-xplatzmd.service will not be renamed and will retain the old naming convention even after running the cleanup utility.
The service related to the embedded database for PostgreSQL will also retain the Novell naming convention, that is, the zenpostgresql.service will remain enabled and will not be removed during cleanup.
The cleanup utility enables you to remove the old ZENworks configuration data that is retained in the Novell file path and the old versions of the ZENworks Server services that are inactive. Run the cleanup utility only after verifying whether the upgraded server is working as expected. The following are retained after running the cleanup utility:
ZENworks agent related data such as the configuration files and libraries will be retained in the old Novell file path.
The ZENworks System Updater Service (ZeUS) folder will be retained in the /opt/novell/zenworks/ZeUS path.
The System Update and other log files will be retained in the /var/opt/novell/log/zenworks path.
Services related to the ZENworks agent, that is, novell-zenworks-xplatzmd.service, will be retained with the Novell naming convention.
The service related to embedded PostgreSQL, that is, zenpostgresql.service, will not be renamed.
To run the clean up utility, execute the following command as a root user and confirm whether you want to proceed with the cleanup:
/opt/microfocus/zenworks/bin/zen-legacy-cleanup.sh
To run the clean up utility silently without user interaction, add the -s flag into the command.
The logs for this cleanup utility can be found at the /var/opt/microfocus/log/zenworks/zen-legacy-cleanup_<timestamp>.log location.
After running the command, you can verify whether the files in the old file path /opt/novell/zenworks/ and old server services that follow the Novell naming convention, are removed from the server or not.
NOTE:When you run the cleanup utility, Sybase related files will be retained, which can be removed manually after verifying whether the upgraded ZENworks Server is working as expected.
If you have migrated the Sybase database to any other database using the database migration tool, the database files, services, and Sybase packages might be retained in the Primary Server. To clean-up the data, run the following scripts on the Primary Server that had the Sybase database.
On Linux/Appliance: Run the script available in: /opt/microfocus/zenworks/install/downloads/tools/cleanupSybase.sh.
After a successful upgrade, you can now go ahead and view the changes introduced in this release:
Example:
Log Files: The log files will now be available in the new Micro Focus path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Focus\ZENworks\logs.
The log files in the old Novell path will be retained. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\logs. These files will not be deleted after you run the cleanup utility.
NOTE:All new server related logs files that are generated after the upgrade, will be available only in the new Micro Focus file path and not in the old Novell file path.
Libraries: The libraries for only the ZENworks Server will now be available in the new Micro Focus path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Focus\ZENworks\lib.
The libraries for both the server and the agent will also be retained in the old Novell path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\lib. When you run the cleanup utility, the libraries related to the ZENworks Server will be deleted from the old path.
ZENworks Server services have been renamed from Novell to Micro Focus. Example: Novell ZENworks Join Proxy is renamed to Microfocus ZENworks Join Proxy. Similarly, the service Novell ZENworks Loader is renamed to Microfocus ZENworks Loader, Novell ZENworks Services Monitor is renamed to Microfocus ZENworks Services Monitor and Novell ZENworks Server server is renamed to Microfocus ZENworks Server.
However, the services that use the old Novell naming convention will still be displayed but will be disabled. You need to run the cleanup utility to remove these services.
NOTE:Services such as the Novell ZENworks Agent Service will remain enabled and will retain the Novell naming convention after running the cleanup utility.
The service related to the embedded database for PostgreSQL will also retain the Novell naming convention, that is, the Novell ZENworks Embedded Datastore-PostgreSQL will remain enabled and will not be removed during cleanup.
A new environment variable %ZENSERVER_HOME% has been introduced in this release that points to the new Micro Focus file path C:\Program Files (x86)\Micro Focus\ZENworks. The existing environment variable %ZENWORKS_HOME% is still applicable to access the ZENworks agent data, which is retained in the Novell file path.
Configure actions have been renamed from Novell to Micro Focus. For example, the configure action novell-zenworks-configure -c CalibrateMemoryConfigureAction is now renamed to microfocus-zenworks-configure -c CalibrateMemoryConfigureAction. Configure actions that follow the Novell naming convention have been deprecated in this release and will be available along with the Configure actions that follow the Micro Focus naming convention.
The cleanup utility enables you to remove the old ZENworks Server data that is retained on the Novell file path and the old versions of the ZENworks Server services that are disabled. Run the cleanup utility only after verifying whether the upgraded ZENworks Server is working as expected. The following are retained after running the cleanup utility:
ZENworks agent related data such as configuration files and libraries will be retained in the Novell file path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks.
The log files will be retained in the Novell file path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\logs.
The ZENworks System Updater Service (ZeUS) folder will be retained in the Novell file path. Example: C:\Program Files (x86)\Novell\ZENworks\ZeUS.
Services related to the ZENworks agent will retain the Novell naming convention, that is, the Novell ZENworks Agent Service will remain enabled. They will not be removed during cleanup.
The service related to the embedded database for PostgreSQL will also retain the Novell naming convention, that is, the Novell ZENworks Embedded Datastore-PostgreSQL will be in a enabled state. It will not be removed during cleanup.
To cleanup the retained data, run the cleanup utility as an administrator. The utility is available at the following location:
%ZENSERVER_HOME%\bin\ZENLegacyCleanup.exe
The logs for this cleanup utility can be found at the %ZENSERVER_HOME%\logs\LegacyUninstall\ZENLegacyCleanup_<timestamp>.log location.
After running the command, you can verify whether the ZENworks Server data in the old Novell file path and the ZENworks Server services that follow the Novell naming convention, are removed from the server or not.
NOTE:When you run the cleanup utility, Sybase related files will be retained, which can be removed manually after verifying whether the upgraded ZENworks Server is working as expected.
If you have migrated the Sybase database to any other database using the database migration tool, the database files, services, and Sybase packages might be retained in the Primary Server. To clean-up the data, run the following scripts on the Primary Server that had the Sybase database.
On Windows: Open the PowerShell console and run the script available in the ZENWORKS_HOME/install/downloads/tools/cleanupSybase.ps1 location.
Ensure that you DO NOT USE COMMAND PROMPT.
After successfully upgrading the Primary Servers, perform the following post-upgrade configurations:
Configure the system update entitlement by activating ZENworks licenses. For more information on licensing, see TID 7024521.
NOTE:
After licensing ZENworks, ensure that you check for updates in ZENworks System Update page.
Using the appliance key from Software Licenses and Downloads, register and then configure Online Updates. For more information, see:
Ensure that you verify the version of ZENworks in ZENworks Control Center (Configuration > Server Hierarchy).
Ensure that the status of System Update is successful.
Ensure that you run the latest ZDC to verify the schema. For more information, see ZENworks Diagnostic Center.
(Conditional) Ensure that you apply the latest Tuxera NTFS driver or imaging updates. For more information, see Adding Tuxera Driver for ZENworks Imaging.
Ensure that you configure reporting to get the newly available domains. For more information, see ZENworks Reporting Configuration.
(Conditional) If ZENworks is connected to ZENworks Reporting Server, then ensure that you upgrade the Reporting database domain to the upgraded ZCM Database. For more information, see Reconfiguring ZENworks Reporting Appliance in ZENworks Reporting Appliance Deployment and Administration Reference.
Ensure that the ZooKeeper service is up and running at all times to enable proper functioning of various ZENworks components such as the ZENworks Loader services and the Vertica database. To verify the status of the ZooKeeper service, see the Diagnostics page in ZCC. For more information on the ZooKeeper component, see ZooKeeper in the Vertica Reference Guide.
NOTE:
The TID is applicable only for Window servers. Refer to the TID and perform the specified steps.
In case of multiple Primary servers in the zone, by default, the Zookeeper service is and active on the first upgraded Primary Server node.
If the Primary Servers in your zone are unable to communicate with the ZooKeeper service due to firewall restrictions, you can run the following configure action to open the ZooKeeper ports:You also need to ensure that the firewall allows client connections from other Primary Servers to the ZooKeeper services on port 6789. If the Primary Servers in your zone are unable to access the ZooKeeper service, then to open the ports, you can run the following Configure action on the server in which ZooKeeper is enabled.
microfocus-zenworks-configure -c ZENServicesFirewallConfigureAction -Doperation=add -Dservice=zookeeper
However, if the Primary Server that is within the DMZ is unable to access the ZooKeeper service within the corporate network, then you need to manually open the port 6789 in the corporate firewall.
For more information on the ZooKeeper ports, see ZENworks 2020 TCP and UDP Ports.
After upgrade, the ZENworks server configuration will be copied from the old Novell file path to the new Micro Focus file path. However, the ZENworks server binaries and old configuration in the old file path is retained during the upgrade process. After verifying whether the upgraded version of the ZENworks Server is working as expected, you can run the cleanup utility provided with the build after a couple of weeks, to remove the retained server data.
For more information, see Running Cleanup Utility on a Linux or Appliance Server or Running the Cleanup Utility on Windows Server.
(Optional) When you run the cleanup utility, Sybase related files will be retained, which can be removed manually after verifying whether the upgraded ZENworks Server is working as expected.
If you have migrated from the Sybase database to any other database using the database migration tool, the database files, services, and Sybase packages might be retained in the Primary Server. To cleanup the data, run the following scripts on the Primary Server that had the Sybase database.
On Linux/Appliance: Run the script available in: /opt/microfocus/zenworks/install/downloads/tools/cleanupSybase.sh
On Windows: Open the PowerShell console and run the script available in the ZENWORKS_HOME/install/downloads/tools/cleanupSybase.ps1 location.
On Windows, ensure that you DO NOT USE COMMAND PROMPT.
