Tools Upgrade from e.g 10.1.7 to 10.1.10 with VUM?

Is it possible to upgrade from one compliant version to another using VUM? The VM is already compliant with with host as is it running 10.1.7 but if we want to harmonize tools version across all VM's, can this be done automatically? It appears that the "Tools upgrade to match host" does nothing to the VM that is already compliant. Or if we want to deploy later a patched version because we hit a problem that has been fixed. How can we do this?

Hi,

You will not be able to do it automatically, you will have to turn off the server for a period of time and then turn it on.

Please explain how turning the VM off "for some time" would help? And how long time is that?
