Hello,
I am in the middle of testing an upgrade of WMS 3.52 through to 4.10. This requires multiple ‘step ups’ of 3.6 and then 3.8. These upgrades have gone fine. However, whenever I try to upgrade from 3.8 (I have applied the hotfix) to 4.1, the update fails each time with an error “failed to migrate lockbox configuration while upgrade.”
I’m not sure why this is failing or how to correct for this; does anyone have any experience and how I can correct?
Thank you.
July 12, 2023 at 5:58 pm #108337I recommend that you install every update in order, as always take a snapshot of your VM before applying updates. Install 4.0.0.526, WMS 4.0.0.540, WMS 4.0.0.547 and then version 4.0.0.550. Then do the same process for the 4.1 updates.
July 13, 2023 at 9:07 am #108340Because of this failure, I did revert my snapshot and start over with doing step-up upgrades and I get the exact same failure message when going from 3.8 to 4.0.0.526. So at the moment, I cannot advance the update beyond 3.8 without receiving a failure message “failed to migrate lockbox configuration while upgrade.”
Thanks.
July 17, 2023 at 10:25 pm #108345Were you able to install WMS_Hotfix_3.8.0.182.exe?
July 18, 2023 at 9:28 pm #108346Yes, I am able to upgrade WMS_Hotfix_3.8.0.182.exe successfully. Next upgrade after that to 4.0.0.526 is when it fails.
Thanks
July 24, 2023 at 2:57 pm #108356Any ideas on what I can try?
Thanks.

ThanksJuly 31, 2023 at 10:17 am #108369Asking around, stand by…
July 31, 2023 at 10:45 am #108372Quick question, did either of you Move or Copy your VM to another location?
July 31, 2023 at 11:03 am #108373The VM has moved between ESX hosts (vMotion) before due to host maintenance, yes.
I will send you an email directly as you mentioned above.
Thanks.
September 7, 2023 at 3:35 am #108401There is a fix available with direct contact with Dell Support. Ask them for the KB article to fix WMS upgrade. You will need to have a personal Dell support account to access the article.
September 15, 2023 at 11:19 am #108424Hi Jim,
Do you know the reason this isn’t publicly available? Why is it hidden behind having to open a support case with Dell?
Thank you.
September 19, 2023 at 2:54 pm #108425Has anyone had any success with this? Dell will only allow to open a support case via phone and no one I’ve talked at Dell knows anything about this KB article.
October 16, 2023 at 11:24 pm #108438There is a fix, you will have to contact Dell Support for the instructions and the files. I am no longer working for Dell and cannot share the information.
Jim
