Hi team,

 

Can  someone please guide us with high level steps for this upgrade as this system that we want to upgrade is completely fresh and new - nothing is downloaded from a upgrade perspective and we only have Windows upgraded to 16 as of now. We haven't also performed any pre steps for the upgrade as we are not aware of the same. Please guide us with mandatory pre steps for this upgrade.

1) Pre upgrade steps

2) Actual Upgrade steps

3) Post Upgrade steps

Hi @ariesyinn ,

 

Since you are planning to upgrade 6.2 to 6.5, It might need repository migration and restucturing. 

You can use pattern detector  to assess the complexity of your upgrade. Then decide whether you need to do in place upgrade or fresh install.
