Upgrading Your ACE Module Software in a Redundant Configuration
Step 5
After the system generates the license key, you will receive a license key e-mail with an attached license
file and installation instructions. Save the license key e-mail in a safe place in case you need it in the
future (for example, to transfer the license to another ACE).

Configuration
To upgrade your ACE software from version A2(3.x) or A2(1.6a) or later to version A5(1.x), you must
also migrate your ACE10 or ACE20 module to a new ACE30 module. For details about migrating to an
ACE30 and upgrading your software to A4(1.0) or later, see the procedure in the Installation Note, Cisco
ACE Application Control Engine ACE30 Module.

ACE Application Control Engine ACE30 Module.
To upgrade your ACE software from A4(1.x) or A4(2.x) to version A5(1.x), the procedure in the
following section assumes that your ACEs are configured as redundant peers to ensure that there is no
disruption to existing connections during the upgrade process. In the following procedure, the active
ACE is referred to as ACE-1 and the standby ACE is referred to as ACE-2.

Note
If you are upgrading a redundant configuration from software version A4(1.x) or A4(2.x) to software
version A5(1.x), while the two ACEs are in split mode with the earlier software version running on the
active ACE and software version A5(1.x) running on the standby, config sync is disabled. If you make
any configuration changes on the active ACE during this time, your changes are not synchronized to the
standby and are lost. After you complete the upgrade, config sync is automatically reenabled. We
recommend that you do not make any configuration changes while the two ACEs are in split mode.
