Upgrading Manually

In some environments, you might want to perform the upgrade steps manually instead of using the Identity Manager installation and upgrade program.

• Make sure that you set the JAVA_HOME environment variable.

• Make sure that the bin directory in the JAVA_HOME directory is in your path.

• Any previously installed hotfixes will be archived to the $WSHOME/patches/HotfixName directory.

The instructions in this section are based on installing Identity Manager on a Tomcat application server. Depending on your application server, you might have to use slightly different commands.

Refer to the appropriate chapter in Part II, Installing Identity Manager, in Sun Identity Manager 8.1 Installation for application server-specific instructions.
