The installation script first verifies that the upgrade path is supported by comparing the INTERFACE value in /usr/tank/client/VERSION with the version being installed. If the difference between these values is greater than 1, the new package will not communicate with the metadata server. The file /usr/tank/server/.IGNORE_VERS can be created to force the upgrade.
Before upgrading to this level, an intermediate upgrade is required. Contact your service representative to determine the supported upgrade path.
