To ensure a seamless upgrade path from older ZEVENET systems to the modern RELIANOID platform, it’s essential to first migrate your existing v6.2 installation. This process is simple and safe and ensures compatibility with future RELIANOID upgrades.

Follow these instructions carefully:

Prerequisites #

• You must be running ZEVENET Enterprise v6.2.
• Apply a snapshot in case a revert is required.
• Root access to each appliance is required.
• If your appliances don’t have internet access, ensure you can transfer files via scp or sftp.

Download the Migration Script #

You have two options:

Option A: If the appliance has internet access #

Open a terminal and run the following command:

root# wget https://repo.relianoid.com/public/apply-relianoid.tgz -O /tmp/apply-relianoid.tgz

Option B: If the appliance has no internet access #

Download the file apply-relianoid.tgz from another machine.

Transfer it to the /tmp directory on each appliance using scp or sftp, for example:

scp apply-relianoid.tgz root@:/tmp/

Apply the RELIANOID Migration Script #

Change to the /tmp directory where the file was downloaded, then extract the archive and finally execute the migration script:

root# cd /tmp
root# tar zxf apply-relianoid.tgz
root:/tmp# ./apply.sh

This will:

• Update your system branding and configuration from ZEVENET to RELIANOID compatible.
• Prepare the system for future upgrades to newer RELIANOID versions.
• Preserve your current load balancing services and configurations.

What Happens During the Migration? #

• No reboot is required, but the relianoid service will be restarted.
• All services remain active and uninterrupted during the migration.
• The appliance will be fully recognized as a RELIANOID system afterward.

Once this migration has been completed on all appliances, you can proceed with the major upgrade to a newer RELIANOID version (such as v8 or later), using the standard upgrade documentation.
