Hi @EvansB,
the general rule for upgrading is:
The Step by step procedure depends on your architecture: if you have a Search head Cluster or an Indexer Cluster, there is a prececence in activities.
Then another relevant factor is the starting version: for more infos see at https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.2.4/Installation/HowtoupgradeSplunk
For Heavy Forwarders, you have only to perform a simple upgrade, eventually backing up the installation folder.
Ciao.
