Hi
We've got MOVE 4.6 implemented, and within ePO we have the MOVE 4.6 extensions installed and the 4.6 software checked into the CURRENT branch.
We're wanting to upgrade to the MOVE 4.8 extensions and then check the MOVE 4.8 software into the EVALUATION branch, but we notice in Software Manager there's this new "meta package bundle" MOVE-AV_Meta_Package_Ext_4.8.0.104, and when we tried to perform the upgrade using this meta package in our test environment, it replaced all of 4.6 software in our CURRENT branch with the 4.8 software - it didn't give us an option to put 4.8 into EVALUATION and keep 4.6 as CURRENT.
Has anyone else noticed this? Is there any way to use this bundle but put the new software into the EVALUATION branch instead and not delete the software in the CURRENT branch?
Solved! Go to Solution.
you wont be able to switch the branch up with the meta package as you have seen. what you will need to do is check in the extensions separately.
however, there are newer 4.8 builds that you will want to have installed when you upgrade. to get one of the builds you will need to open a support ticket and ask to get hotfix 1261515
with that hf you will just need the following packages (the rest are updated with what is in software manager)
DC__AM__4000_4.8.0.133_HF1261515.zip
MOVE-AV-MP_Client_Pkg_4.8.0.192_HF1261515.zip
then do the following:
download the meta package and extract out the MOVEAVLIC400.zip
from software manager MOVE 4.8 packages, select update for the following
MDCC extension 5.3.1.216
vsphere connector extension 5.3.1.206
Move antivirus common extension 4.8.0.135
then check in
DC__AM__4000_4.8.0.133_HF1261515.zip and MOVEAVLIC400.zip
once that is done the Move extensions will be updated to 4.8
now you can check in the 4.8 deployment packages to a different branch
MOVE-AV-MP_Client_Pkg_4.8.0.192_HF1261515.zip
from software manager
Move AV [Multi-Platform] SVM - 4.8.0.411
Move AV [Multi-Platform] SVM Manager - 4.8.0.411

Thanks for the confirmation. While these bundles attempt to make life easier, they're not really suitable to be used via Software Manager check-in in an enterprise environment if it overwrites software in the current branch.
It's annoying that within Software Manager I can no longer pick and choose extensions and packages "a la carte" and now I have to download first and manually check in.
