Upgrade the Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension
When you are upgrading, the newer version of the Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension recognizes the existing Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension installation and prompts you to upgrade it. We recommend upgrading, as removing the installed Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension deletes your settings.
To upgrade the Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension, you need to use ePO to install the latest extension from Software > Extensions. When you upload the new Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension, ePO prompts you that this newer version of the ePO Extension will replace the previous extension. Click OK to upgrade the Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension. You do not need to restart ePO for the upgrade to take effect. Existing registered servers, client tasks, and server tasks are not affected.
If you see an error message that states "Please stop CopyFromStaging from running before upgrading the database," make sure that no new events are being processed by querying the above tables and try again.
This upgrade path can be applied to both standalone Reporting configurations and to configurations spread over multiple machines.

You can upload a newer version of the Endpoint Privilege Management
Depending on the type of installation, a restart of the endpoint may be required. When installing in silent mode, a reboot occurs automatically.
The Endpoint Privilege Management ePO Extension maintains backwards compatibility with the Endpoint Privilege Management
