Action required: The Continuous Data UI, API, and CLI are scheduled for end of life. Review the latest migration guidance and start planning your transition to Data Control Tower.
On new engine installations of 2026.5.0.0 and later, the Admin UI opens directly to the Performance Dashboard, and the Manage, Resources, and System menus are unavailable. Engines upgraded from an earlier version keep full Admin UI access. This restriction cannot be changed by customers; contact Delphix Support if you need it lifted temporarily.
Learn more about the Continuous Data end-of-life announcement.
Refer to the Upgrade matrix before upgrading. Review the release notes and version-specific documentation for your source version, target version, and every intermediate version you upgrade through for prerequisites and conditions.
For upgrades from version 6.0.0.0 or later to a compatible version, contacting Delphix Support is not required.
Upgrade images for target versions 6.0.2.0 and later include upgrade pre-checks. Use the latest target-version image because checks may be updated between releases.
Upgrades from version 2025.3.0.* or older to version 2025.4.0.* or newer require an Upgrade and Reboot and VDB downtime.
To upload an upgrade version to the Delphix Engine:

The panel shows the current engine version and the versions available for upgrade.
-
Click the plus icon to upload a new version.

.tarupgrade image from the Delphix download site. Continuous Data and Continuous Compliance use the same upgrade image, which is generic to supported virtualization platforms. Do not extract or modify the file.Your upload begins when you drop or select a file (upgrade image) into the Upload Upgrade Image window. You can view upload progress under Upload Status.
-
In the Upload Complete window, click OK. You see the new version appear on the page.
When the upgrade image upload completes, upgrade verification starts automatically.
This verification process notifies you of any potential problems that require intervention from either you or Delphix Support. You cannot install the new version of the Delphix Engine before verification completes. You can track verification progress from the Action sidebar. Any issues found during the verification process are listed on the version page. Before upgrading, resolve every CRITICAL result. For each WARNING result, resolve it or mark it ignored if you accept its consequences. INFORMATIONAL results do not require action.
