The exact upgrading procedure of the syslog-ng Agent for Windows application depends on how you have installed and how you manage the agent.

Warning |
|---|---|
|
When upgrading agents running in domain mode, always upgrade the agents running on the domain hosts before upgrading the agent running on the domain controllers. The hosts of a domain (including the domain controllers) should run the same version of the syslog-ng Agent, running different versions on the hosts in neither supported nor recommended. |
If a host is running the syslog-ng agent in standalone mode, download and execute the syslog-ng-agent-<versionnumber>-setup.exe installer on the host and verify that the displayed information is correct. The agent will be automatically restarted when you close the configuration window.
If a domain host is running the syslog-ng agent that was installed by the domain controller from the .msi installer package, complete the steps described in Section 5.1.2, “Installing the syslog-ng agent on the domain controller and the hosts of a domain”. The system will automatically recognize that the new package will update the syslog-ng Agent for Windows application.
If a domain host is running the syslog-ng agent that was installed manually from the syslog-ng-agent-nosnapin-<versionnumber>-setup.exe file, run the new syslog-ng-agent-nosnapin-<versionnumber>-setup.exe file on the host. After the installation is complete, select Start > Run and execute the gpupdate command to refresh the domain settings of the agent.
