PA-500 Upgrade to 4.0.3

L0 Member

Hi All,

I have just upgraded a PA-500 from 3.1.8 to 4.0.3 loading the 4.0.1 base first.

Once the unit rebooted the "Autocom" job has been stuck at 10% for the last 30 minutes and is still running.

Has anyone experienced this before, not sure if I should kill the job and recommit ?

Hi Marct

the autocommit after upgrading from3.1 to 4.0 will take a fairly long time and can take up to 1 hour in some rarer cases

what actually happens is that the config file gets migrated and the log index needs to be recompiled into a newer format introduced in 4.0, if the unit has been running for a long time, the log index is pretty big so this operation can take a while

It was suggested I allow around an hour when we do upgrade from 3.1.x.  Apparently you don't have to go to 4.0.1 first though.  You do need it downloaded as it's the base image, but you can install 4.0.3 (or whatever is the latest) and upgrade directly to that.
