Fixes
DPAIM 2024.2 includes the fixes in version 2024.2 of the SolarWinds Platform.
Before you upgrade
If you are using DPAIM with DPA 2023.4.300 or earlier, be aware of the following port changes before you upgrade.
Previous versions of the SolarWinds Platform used port 17778 by default to communicate with DPA. Starting with 2024.2, port 17778 port is disabled by default and replaced with port 17774.
If you are using the DPA Integration Module (DPAIM) with DPA 2023.4.300 or earlier, DPA will not be able to send information on port 17774. To continue sending database information to the SolarWinds Platform, you can either:
- Upgrade to DPA 2024.2 or later to switch to port 17774.
- Use Advanced Configuration to enable port 17778 on the SolarWinds Platform again.
See Specify the port DPA uses... for more information about these options.
Installation or upgrade
For new SolarWinds Platform deployments, you can download the installation file from the product page on https://www.solarwinds.com or from the Customer Portal. For more information, see Get the installer.
If you have an existing SolarWinds Platform deployment, DPAIM is installed with other platform modules. To begin using it, set up the DPA Integration Module.
For upgrades, go to Settings > My Deployment to initiate the upgrade. The SolarWinds Installer upgrades your entire deployment (all SolarWinds Platform products and any scalability engines).
For more information, see the SolarWinds Platform Product Installation and Upgrade Guide.
For supported upgrade paths to 2024.2, see Upgrade an existing deployment.
