Checking node status done ╢▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌▌╟ 100 %
The following tasks have to be perfomed to complete the preparation of the node:
- The node needs to be reinstalled.
- Follow the Entrust PKI Hub documentation on how to reinstall an EDM 2.0.0-based node for upgrading to Entrust PKI Hub.
- WARNING: this task may imply service outage in the node, depending on your platform.
Once all the manual preparation tasks have been completed, re-execute the 'pki-hub-upgrade prepare' command.

Specifically, this situation occurs when:

  • Entrust Deployment Manager 2.0.2 was installed using an ISO file.
  • Entrust Deployment Manager 2.0.2  was upgraded from 2.0.0 at some point.

In this case, follow the steps below, depending on the number of nodes on your installation.
