Hi - has anybody done an on-premises data gateway upgrade for a cluster of servers? I have a primary and secondary server and would like to know the steps or cautions to be taken care of. What all measures do I need? As per MS documentation:
Please follow the following steps while updating a gateway cluster with two or more members:
Disable one gateway member.
Update the gateway member.
Enable the updated gateway member.
Repeat step 1-3 until all gateway members are updated
How do I disable one gateway?
Any help is really appreciated. These are production live servers and so I want to make sure it doesn't break any connectivity.
@Gauri Pophli Disable gateway member means stopping the On-premises data gateway service (PBIEgwSerice) under the services (from Task Manager) running on your cluster VM (mutiple VM running the same OPDG) where you have installed the OPDG. You can also refer to this document.
Thanks @MayankBargali-MSFT - but if I disable the service from task manager, how can I upgrade it? As the application won't start and sign me in unless the service is running?
@Gauri Pophli You need to download the latest OPDG and when you install it will give you the option to upgrade the OPDG. I don't see the option for signin when I upgrade OPDG at my end. Only while configuration/reconfiguration it will ask you to sign in. If you have only one instance of OPDG then you should directly upgrade without stopping the service.
