Need to upgrade from Log Insight 4.8, but 8.1.1 version is not available anymore

[dellanolf]

Hello, 

The upgrade path from version 4.8 is --> 8.1.1 --> 8.2 --> 8.4.1 --> 8.6.2. However, I believe the 8.1.1 version is not available for download anymore. The question is: I found an available HotFix "VMware-vRealize-Log-Insight-8.1.1-19283342" on the "patch" site. Can I use it to upgrade from 4.8 to 8.1.1? And, if not, is there another way to do it?

PS:

It' the first time i ask something here, so if anything is wrong, I apologize in advance.

Sorry for my english too 😉

Best regards.

I was able to find the 8.1.1 upgrade package here:

https://customerconnect.vmware.com/downloads/details?downloadGroup=VRLI-811&productId=938&rPId=82496

You should be able to download that and follow these instructions to get your 4.8 instance upgraded:

johnbowdre,

I could download the .pak and everything went OK with the upgrades.

Thank you!
