Correct. Your deployment keys are needed for this upgrade so you can’t upgrade the root server to 9.5 with a fixlet. Everything else can be upgraded via fixlet though
I’ve just upgraded my Bigfix server from 9.2.7 to 9.5.0 - everything seemed to go smoothly, our server runs on Win2008 R2 and updated just fine. I had a little hiccup with the Windows client fixlet not showing as relevant for a huge swath of my Windows clients, but I’ve resolved that.
What is happening now is that, logged in as a master operator, the Modify Custom Site Subscriptions menu entry when you right click on a computer in the besconsole is GREYED OUT - for my master operator accounts, for all my user operator accounts.
I google’d around and found the option disableNmoCustomSiteSubscribe, which supposedly when set to 1 in the advanced options using the site admin tool (or on the command line if your server is running on Linux), it would disable the ability to modify custom site subscriptions… but from what I read it should only apply to non-master-operators, and further-more we DO NOT have that option enabled. I actually tried adding it with a value of 0, restarting the bigfix server and reconnecting, but it made no difference.
There does not seem to be a enableNmoCustomSiteSubscribe option, heh. Is anyone else seeing this? Anyone have any ideas?
Can you confirm if you have any custom sites whose subscription policy is via ad-hoc subscription actions?
If there are no custom sites whose computer subscriptions are configured to be based on ad-hoc actions, then the ‘Modify Custom Site Subscriptions’ is expected to be unavailable in the Computer’s right-click context menu.
