* If CA Anomaly Detector is installed on the stand-alone CA Network Flow Analysis server or NFA console server, stop these CA Anomaly Detector services.

The services and data collection stop. The data files are processed within 15 minutes.

  1. Check the following directory on the NFA console server:

    <install_path>\Netflow\datafiles\HarvesterWork

    When the HarvesterWork folder is empty, you can back up the database.

    The services are restarted automatically during the upgrade process.
