  1. Refer to Upgrade HA receivers in Trellix Enterprise Security Manager 11.6.x Installation Guide.

  2. Skip step 6.

  3. On step 7a, select the primary receiver instead of the secondary receiver in Receiver Management.

Note

The above steps are only needed when upgrading to 11.6.x for the first time.
