There are now two formats of the Keyfactor AnyCAGateway (DCOM and REST). While it is the intention to deprecate the DCOM format eventually, for a brief period, both versions will be released. This complicates the upgrade process, in terms of determining whether a given gateway install can or cannot be upgraded to a particular destination version.
The allowed upgrade rules are as follows:
-
Upgrading from an older DCOM gateway to a newer DCOM gateway is allowed.
-
Upgrading from an older REST gateway to a newer REST gateway is allowed.
-
Converting a DCOM gateway to a REST gateway is only allowed on the exact version (so 24.1 DCOM can upgrade directly to 24.1 REST, but 23.4 DCOM cannot).
-
Converting from a REST gateway to a DCOM gateway is never allowed.
See Table 1039: AnyCA Gateway Upgrade Compatibility Matrix for upgrade compatibility between Keyfactor AnyCAGateway formats.
