Important: Please note that an upgrade to the PowerConnect Splunkbase version 7.0.+ will require a restart of the search head where the existing app is installed. Therefore, the upgrade needs to be scheduled within your organization’s maintenance window because the search head will temporarily be unavailable.
Before installing the new version: If you have made any changes to the lookup files (ip_subnets, security_parameters_names, sensitive_tcodes, wide_open_auth_objects, sensitive_user_roles, sensitive_user_roles_java) OR app's navigation bar :
Make sure you take the backup of the lookup files (located at: $SPLUNK_HOME$/etc/apps/BNW-app-powerconnect/lookups/) AND app's navigation bar XML file (located at: $SPLUNK_HOME$/etc/apps/BNW-app-powerconnect/local/data/ui/nav/default.xml).If you are upgrading PowerConnect app from version 6.2.0 and have followed the first way of updating queries through UI given in the following KB document - {+}https://www.powerconnect.io/wiki/kb-098-cpu-memory-and-availability-gauges-displaying-0-values-v-6-2-0-bug/+, then there would be a copy of the file sap_system_ovw.xml in $SPLUNK_HOME/etc/apps/bnw-app-powerconnect/local/data/ui/views directory. Remove this file from the location and then follow the steps below.
Install the app through UI from "Manage Apps" > "Install app from file".
