Self-hosted Sputnik server: removing older Sputnik software

Applies to:

• Sputnik version 2.10.4 or earlier
• Sputnik Core Client version 1.14.0 or earlier

OS requirements:

• CentOS 7 / RHEL 7 / Ubuntu 16.04

Self-hosted Sputnik servers that are used with an active Core subscription and that are running older / deprecated Sputnik versions (2.10.4 or earlier) and Sputnik Core Client / Sputnik Core Connector versions (1.14.0 or earlier) must first remove these older versions before the updated releases can be installed, as described in this article.
