Updating Older Versions of Metric Extensions Already Deployed to a Group of Targets

When a newer metric extension version is published, you may want to update any older deployed instances of the metric extension.

To update old versions of the metric extension already deployed to targets:

  1. From the Enterprise menu, select Monitoring, then select Metric Extensions.
  2. From the Metric Extensions page, determine which extensions are accessible. The page displays the list of metric extensions along with target type, owner, production version and deployment information.
  3. Select the metric extension to be upgraded.
  4. From the Actions menu, select Manage Target Deployments. The Manage Target Deployments page appears showing a list of targets where the metric extension is already deployed.
  5. Select the list of targets where the extension is to be upgraded and click Upgrade. Enterprise Manager submits a job for the deployment of the newest Published metric extension to the selected targets. A single job is submitted per deployment request.
  6. You are automatically redirected to the Pending Operations page, which shows a list of currently scheduled, executing, or failed metric extension deploy operations. Once the deploy operation completes, the entry is removed from the pending operations table.
