# Upgrading Commvault Cloud Software On Demand

Commvault Cloud will typically upgrade your software automatically without any impact to your backups. However, there may be cases when you would like to upgrade the Commvault Cloud software component on-demand.

The upgrade process must be performed in the following order:

- backup gateway

- HyperScale X nodes

- File system, database and Active Directory agents or laptops

## Before You Begin

Verify that the backup gateway and the servers/laptops have access to the internet.
