The following instructions summarize how to apply updates to systems with installations of BlueCat Address Manager (BAM) that connect to BlueCat DNS/DHCP Servers (BDDS) that are running Distribted DDNS. When applying updates and patches for BAM and BDDS, if they are used in a Distributed DDNS system, there are additional steps and considerations.
Note: This information is collected here for convenience only. For more complete details
about installing and updating BlueCat Address Manager, see the appropriate Integrity
Guides.
Upgrade steps differ slightly depending on whether you're applying a major update (such as from BAM/BDDS 9.3.x to BAM/BDDS 9.5.x), a minor update (such as from BAM/BDDS 9.5.0 to BAM/BDDS 9.5.1), or a Hotfix (where the version number does not necessarily change).
