  2. If the status is RUNNING, stop the replication service:

    Replication> continuous service stop

  3. Upgrade the secondary site.
  4. Upgrade the primary site.
  5. Start the replication service:

If episodic replication is configured and replication jobs are running on the file systems, complete the following steps:

  1. Check the status of configured jobs:

    replication episodic job status job_name

  2. For all the replication jobs that are running, pause the jobs:

    replication episodic job pause job_name

  3. Upgrade the target cluster.
  4. Upgrade the source cluster.
  5. Resume the replication jobs that were paused before the upgrade:
