Splunk deployment server version upgrade from 7.x to 8.x

[rcr]

Hi Team,

Currently we are using Splunk cloud Version:8.0.2006. We upgraded the HF to version 8.

Now we are planning to upgrade the deployment server from version 7.x to 8.x.

Kindly share the implementation procedure steps and related documents.

Regards

CR

The procedure for upgrading a DS is exactly the same as that for a HF.

Just like @richgalloway said, the procedure is exactly same. Here is the update order of nodes in distributed environment, if you have also another nodes than DS outside of cloud. https://community.splunk.com/t5/Installation/What-s-the-order-of-operations-for-upgrading-Splunk-Ent...

If you've already upgraded a HF then why do you need instructions?  Use the same steps you already performed.  FTR, the first page of the release notes always contains a link to the upgrade instructions.  Do *do* read the release notes, right?

Just follow this instruction https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/8.0.6/Installation/HowtoupgradeSplunk
