and REST keys from the console during an upgrade. The PowerBrokerUnix and Linux deployment will *not* be affected, however the

use the Settings/ Integration page to re-deploy the keys.

- Database changes and ORM updates require that the PBSMC must be upgraded from 6.1 to 7.0; earlier versions of the

product cannot be updated directly to 7.0 and instead must be first upgraded to 6.1.
