The Pulse Monitor version number can be found in the Status tab of the Pulse About page as below:

The Pulse Monitor does not have to be upgraded for each Pulse release. You will only need to upgrade the Pulse Monitor if it is specified in the release notes.

Once the Pulse Application server will be upgraded by running the installer, you will find the new monitor.exe file in the Pulse for TM1\bin folder.

Starting with v6.6.0, the Pulse Monitor now comprises of two files, monitor.exe and monitor-cmd.exe. The monitor.exe file is the main executable file that runs the Pulse Monitor, while the monitor-cmd.exe file is a command-line version of the Pulse Monitor. When copying into another server, these two files must be copied and should be located side-by-side.

Once you have located the monitor.exe and the monitor-cmd.exe files, copy these two files and paste them into each server where a Pulse Monitor is running.

To upgrade the Pulse Monitor, you could either run the Pulse installer and select only the Pulse Monitor option or you could follow the manual steps below:

1. Stop the Pulse Monitor service
2. Replace the monitor.exe file with the new one
3. If you’re upgrading to v6.6.0 or later, you need to add the monitor-cmd.exe file.
4. Start the Pulse Monitor service
