Hi Team,

I have a Large environment set up and the need is to upgrade the AppD env. from 4.1.8.5 to 4.2.1.5 and the issue is the current version is installed by root and the new version we want t install by another ID. Can you please suggest ways to change the user controls from root to non root in the existing setup so that we can upgrade to newer version with the same ID.

Thanks.

Best Regards,

Saurabh

Though i have not tried but i would recommend this.

- Stop controller and other services.

- Ask the root user to change owner and group for all the AppDynamics folders recursively using option -R.

- Start the controller and associated services as the new user.

- validate everything works fine.

- Continue with the upgrade.
