## Prozedur

1. **Wahlweise:** Back up sensitive files by running the following command.  

       tar -Pcvzf /root/acc_backup.tar.gz /etc/servicenow/agent-client-collector \
       /var/cache/servicenow/agent-client-collector/agent_now_id \
       /usr/lib/systemd/system/acc.service

2. Download the .rpm/.deb agent package and signature files, as described in [Install Agent Client Collector on a Linux system](https://servicenow-prod.fluidtopics.net/P3hFFU2wxLzRWTyYbMJyzg "Install Agent Client Collector using a package distribution tool. Prior to installing, you can manually install the Agent Client Collector on a few machines to ensure that your agents contain the correct policies and checks before installing a large number of agents.").
3. Upgrade the package.
   * In an RPM-based system:`rpm -Uv agent-client-collector-<version number>-x86_64.rpm`

   * In a DEB-based system:`dpkg -i agent-client-collector-<version number>-<distro>_amd64.deb`

4. Restore the systemd service file (if you customized the file), using either an automation tool or by reloading systemd configuration.  

       tar -C / -Pxvzf /root/acc_backup.tar.gz usr/lib/systemd/system/acc.service

       systemctl daemon-reload

5. Change the owner:group setting to the correct one by running the following command.  

       chown -R servicenow:servicenow /{etc,var/cache,var/log,usr/share}/servicenow/agent-client-collector

6. Restart the service and verify that it connects to its backend-url.  

       systemctl restart acc
       tail -f /var/log/servicenow/agent-client-collector/acc.log
