  • Permanent update: You cannot undo or stop the update once you begin. The update may take some time to complete depending on the number of agents managed by your Apex One as a Service instance. Trend strongly recommends scheduling the update during off hours to avoid a disruption of service.
  • Forced sign out during update: Communicate with any associates that access to your Trend Micro Apex One as a Service console will be immediately terminated once the update process begins. Finish all on-going tasks before starting the update. After the update completes, you may need to update your user accounts before re-accessing the system. If an account update is required, the affected users will receive an email notification with instructions about how to perform the update.
  • Post-update tasks:
    • Verify that your user accounts have the correct access permissions and roles in the new User Account app and resolve any role conflicts.
    • Verify that all your endpoint groups, policies, and system settings updated properly to the Standard Endpoint Protection and Endpoint Inventory apps.
    • Check or establish your IdP connection in Trend Vision One.
    • The update process only moves your base agents and not your Endpoint Sensor agents. After the update process is complete, you must contact your support representative to re-associate your Endpoint Sensor agents with your Standard Endpoint Protection endpoints.
  • Compliance considerations: Ensure that you have read and understood the Privacy and personal data collection disclosure for Trend Vision One. Customers that have PCI compliance concerns should contact a sales representative before starting the update.
  • Virtual desktops: After updating to Trend Vision One, you must rebuild your golden image or Sysprep image if your endpoints meet all of the following criteria:
    • The virtual desktops managed under the Apex One Server that you update have never used the Trend Vision One Endpoint Sensor.
    • The virtual desktops are provisioned through a golden image for VDI or cloned as virtual machines using a Sysprep image.
    For more information, see Creating a golden image with the agent software.
