Note 
Upgrading Content Gateway on a V-Series appliance is handled by the V-Series upgrade (patch) process. See Upgrading V-Series Appliances to v8.0.x.
Perform an upgrade by running the Content Gateway installer on a machine with a previous version of Content Gateway installed. The installer detects the presence of Content Gateway and upgrades it to the current version.
Versions supported for direct upgrade to v8.0.x

v7.0/7.1 > v7.5 > v7.6 > v7.7 > v7.8.x > v8.0.x
