POST Upgrades

POST Upgrades

Starts the process of upgrading VMware Aria Operations for Logs to a new version. This request uploads a PAK file containing the new version, and sets the upgrade status to "Pending". PAK file URL should be provided in JSON body. It's also possible to upload PAK file directly as a binary data by setting 'Content-Type' header to 'application/octet-stream' and sending PAK file as a body. It returns the new End User License Agreement (EULA) and upgrade version. To continue with the upgrade, send a PUT /upgrades/{version}/eula with eulaAccepted set to true.

Troubleshooting Tips
