Abstract
System enables selection of application hosts which meet update requirements, then downloads update for instances of application agent corresponding to selected application hosts. System puts selected application hosts in maintenance mode, which prevents selected application hosts from beginning execution of any operations, until updating selected application hosts is completed. System creates copy of instructions, which when executed, installs update in instance of application agent in one of application hosts, and reports on update process to server which communicates with application hosts. System launches worker process from copy of instructions. System initiates update sessions which install update in instances of application agent corresponding to selected application hosts. If update sessions failed to install update in any of instances of application agent in cluster of application hosts, system rolls back update for updated instances of application agents in cluster of application hosts to previous conditions of instances of application agents.
