Upgrade Panorama Without an Internet Connection
If Panorama™ does not have a direct connection
to the internet, perform the following steps to install Panorama
software and content updates as needed. If Panorama is deployed
in a high availability (HA) configuration, you must upgrade each
peer (see Upgrade Panorama in an HA Configuration).
Upgrading
the software on the Panorama virtual appliance does not change the system
mode; switching to Panorama mode or Management Only mode is a manual task
that requires additional settings as described when you Set Up the Panorama Virtual Appliance
with a Local Log Collector.
PAN-OS 10.1 introduces a new log format. On upgrade from PAN-OS 10.0 to PAN-OS 10.1, you can
choose to migrate logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier release. Otherwise, these
logs are automatically deleted on successful upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1. During
migration, log data is not visible in the
ACC
or
Monitor
tabs. While the migration takes place, log data
continues forwarding to the appropriate Log Collector but you may experience some
impact to performance.Palo Alto Networks introduced new log data formats at different points in your
upgrade path depending on the PAN-OS version you are upgrading from.
- Upgrade from PAN-OS 8.1 to PAN-OS 9.0—PAN-OS 9.0 introduced a new log data format for local and Dedicated Log Collectors. On your upgrade path to PAN-OS 10.1, existing log data is automatically migrated to the new format when you upgrade from PAN-OS 8.1 to PAN-OS 9.0.
- Upgrade from PAN-OS 10.0 to PAN-OS 10.1—PAN-OS 10.1 introduced a new log format for local and Dedicated Log Collectors. On upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1, logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier are no longer available. This includes logs migrated as part of the upgrade to PAN-OS 9.0. After upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1, you have the option to recover and migrate these logs to the PAN-OS 10.1 log format.
You must upgrade all
Log Collectors in a collector group at the same time to avoid losing
log data loss. No log forwarding or log collection occurs if the
Log Collectors in a collector group are not all running the same
PAN-OS version. Additionally, the log data for the Log Collectors
in the collector group is not visible in the
ACC
or Monitor
tabs
until all Log Collectors are running the same PAN-OS version. For example,
if you have three Log Collectors in a collector group and you upgrade
two of the Log Collectors, then no logs are forwarded to any Log
Collectors in the collector group.Before you upgrade Panorama,
refer to the Release Notes for the
minimum content release version required for PAN-OS® 10.1.
For
Panorama on Azure, you must perform additional steps before you
can successfully upgrade the software version. To upgrade, you need
to export the Panorama configuration, upgrade the content and software
versions, and import the configuration to the Panorama management
server after you successfully upgrade.
- Verify that the updates you plan to install are appropriate for your Panorama deployment.Palo Alto Networks highly recommends that Panorama, Log Collectors, and all managed firewalls run the same content release version.
- Refer to the Release Notes for the minimum content release version you must install for a Panorama software release. If you intend to upgrade Log Collectors and firewalls to a particular release, you must first upgrade Panorama to that (or a later) release.
- For a Panorama virtual appliance, ensure that the instance meets the Setup Prerequisites for the Panorama Virtual Appliance.
- You cannot skip the installation of any feature release versions in the path from the currently running PAN-OS version to PAN-OS 10.1Review PAN-OS Upgrade Checklist, the known issues and changes to default behavior in the Release Notes and Upgrade/Downgrade Considerations for each release through which you pass as part of your upgrade path.
- Save a backup of the current Panorama configuration file that you can use to restore the configuration if you have problems with the upgrade.Although Panorama automatically creates a backup of the configuration, best practice is to create and externally store a backup before you upgrade.
- Save named Panorama configuration snapshot(), enter aPanoramaSetupOperationsNamefor the configuration, and clickOK.
- Export named Panorama configuration snapshot, select theNameof the configuration you just saved, clickOK, and save the exported file to a location that is external to Panorama.
- Download the latest content updates to a host that can connect and upload content to Panorama either over SCP or HTTPS.If you do not need to install content updates at this time, then skip ahead to 6.
- Use a host that has internet access to log in to the Palo Alto Networks Customer Support website.
- Download content updates as needed:
- Clickin the Resources section.UpdatesDynamic Updates
- Downloadthe appropriate content updates and save the files to the host. Perform this step for each content type you need to update.
- Install the latest content updates.You must install content updates before software updates and you must upgrade firewalls first and then upgrade Log Collectors before you install them on the Panorama management server.Install the Applications or Applications and Threats update first, and then install any other updates (Antivirus, WildFire®, and URL Filtering), one at a time, and in any sequence.Regardless whether your subscription includes both Applications and Threats content, Panorama installs and needs only the Applications content. For details, see Panorama, Log Collector, Firewall, and WildFire Version Compatibility.Log in to the Panorama web interface and perform the following steps for each content type:
- Select.PanoramaDynamic Updates
- ClickUpload, select the contentType,Browseto the location on the host to which you downloaded the update, select the update, and clickOK.

- (Logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier releases only) If the Log Collector stores logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier release, the upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1 an alert is displayed notifying you that logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier release were detected and are no longer available after upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1.This alert provides the exact CLI commands required to migrate and recover logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier release after successful upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1. Save these CLI commands if you want to recover the logs generated while running PAN-OS 8.1 and earlier release.Acknowledge the notification andInstallPAN-OS 10.1 again.
- (Optional for Logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier releases only) After successful upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1, migrate and recover logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 and earlier releases.If you choose to not migrate and recover logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 and earlier releases, they are deleted and are no longer available. Migrating the log format is required to recover logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 and earlier releases after successful upgrade to PAN-OS 10.1.Skip this step if you do not need to preserve logs generated in PAN-OS 8.1 or earlier release or if there are no logs that need to be migrated.
- Log in to the Panorama CLI of the Log Collector.
- Enter the CLI commands automatically displayed in the previous step to migrate logs.The commands displayed to migrate logs are dynamic and unique to each Log Collector.
- View the status of the log migration.admin>debug logdb migrate-lc statusDo not reboot or otherwise power off the Log Collector until the log migration is complete. Disrupting the log migration may result in log loss.
