Hello  
As I have seen a new version available I decided to upgrade

Elasticsearch server OK ✅  
Logstas server OK ✅  
Elasticsearch server OK ✅  
kibana server OK ✅  
Fleet server [don't know] 🫤

I understand that the fleet server is an agent that takes the role of coordinator or administrator of the other agents.

Should I just stop the service with a **systemctl stop elastic-agent** and then do an **apt-get update && apt-get install elastic-agent**?

As the agent that is in the fleet server acts as the administrator or coordinator of the other agents, it must be updated in a different way. I did it with the  
command

`sudo elastic-agent upgrade 8.15.3`
