Overview of Portal Server Secure Remote Access UpgradesThis section describes the following general aspects of Portal Server Secure Remote Access that impact upgrading to Java ES 2005Q4 (Release 4):
About Java ES Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access
Java ES Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access mostly represents bug fixes. There is no major new functionality with respect to Release 3.
Portal Server Secure Remote Access Upgrade Roadmap
Table 18-1 shows the supported Portal Server Secure Remote Access upgrade paths to Java ES Release 4. The table applies to both Solaris and Linux operating systems.
Portal Server Secure Remote Access Data
The following table shows the type of data that could be impacted by an upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access software.
Compatibility Issues
Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access does not introduce any interface changes. Portal Server Secure Remote Access is backwardly compatible with earlier versions.
Portal Server Secure Remote Access Dependencies
Portal Server Secure Remote Access dependencies on other Java ES components can impact the procedure for upgrading and re-configuring Portal Server Secure Remote Access software. Changes in Portal Server Secure Remote Access interfaces or functions, for example, could require upgraded version of components upon which Portal Server Secure Remote Access depends. The need to upgrade such components depends upon the specific upgrade path.
Portal Server Secure Remote Access has dependencies on the following Java ES components:
- Shared components. Portal Server Secure Remote Access has dependencies on specific Java ES shared components (see Table 1-6).
- Portal Server. Portal Server Secure Remote Access provides secure remote access to Portal Server.
- Access Manager (or Access Manager SDK). Portal Server Secure Remote Access depends upon Access Manager to provide authentication and authorization services for end users, including single sign-on. If Access Manager is run on a remote computer, then Access Manager SDK must be available locally.
- Directory Server. Portal Server Secure Remote Access accesses user data stored in Directory Server. As a result, Portal Server Secure Remote Access upgrades might require extensions of directory schema.
Upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 3This section includes information about upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES 2005Q1 (Release 3) to Java ES Release 4. The section covers the following topics:
Introduction
When upgrading Java ES Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 4, consider the following aspects of the upgrade process:
- General Upgrade Approach. The upgrade is performed by applying patches to the Release 3 version. Re-configuration of Portal Server Secure Remote Access is not required.
- Upgrade Dependencies. While Portal Server Secure Remote Access has dependencies on a number of Java ES shared components (see Table 1-6), Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access is compatible with the Release 3 version of these components. Upgrade of these shared components, except for Mobile Access Core (MA Core), is therefore optional with respect to upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 4.
In addition, Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access is dependent upon Portal Server, Access Manager, and Directory Server as described in Portal Server Secure Remote Access Dependencies. Upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 4 requires that Portal Server also be upgraded. However, the dependencies on Access Manager and Directory Server are soft upgrade dependencies; upgrade of these components is optional with respect to upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 4.
- Backward Compatibility. Release 4 Portal Server Secure Remote Access is backwardly compatible with the Release 3 version.
- Upgrade Rollback. Rollback of the Release 4 upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 3 is achieved by rolling back the patches applied during the upgrade. Patch rollback is not available on the Linux platform.
- Platform Issues. The general approach for upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access is the same on both Solaris and Linux operating systems, however the patching technologies are different. The upgrade process therefore includes platform-specific procedures.
Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access Upgrade
This section describes how to perform an upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 3 to Java ES Release 4 on both the Solaris and Linux platform. Where a topic depends on platform-specific procedures, the topic will indicate the operating system to which it applies. The section covers the following topics:
Pre-Upgrade Tasks
Before you upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access you should perform the tasks described below.
Verify Current Version Information
You can verify the current version of Portal Server Secure Remote Access using the following commands:
PortalServer-base/bin/gateway version
PortalServer-base/bin/rwproxyd version
PortalServer-base/bin/netletd version

1The only difference between Release 3 and Release 4 is a patch. You can check for the Release 4 patches shown in Table 18-5 and Table 18-7 using the Solaris showrev -p | grep patch_ID command and the Linux rpm -qa sun-portal-core command and look for the string “25.12” or greater.
Upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access Dependencies
It is generally recommended that all Java ES components on a computer system (and in a computing environment) be upgraded to Java ES Release 4. However, Portal Server has a hard upgrade dependency only on the Mobile Access Core (MA Core) shared component. Upgrading of otherJava ES Release 3 components upon which Portal Server depends is therefore optional.
However, if you choose to upgrade all Portal Server Secure Remote Access dependencies, they should be upgraded in the following order, all before you upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access. You can skip any that might already have been upgraded.
- Shared Components. Instructions for upgrading Java ES shared components to Release 4 are provided in Upgrading Java ES Shared Components.
- Directory Server. Instructions for upgrading Directory Server to Release 4 are provided in Chapter 4, "Directory Server and Administration Server".
- Access Manager (Access Manager SDK). Instructions for upgrading Access Manager to Release 4 are provided in Chapter 11, "Access Manager".
- Portal Server. Instructions for upgrading Portal Server are provided in Chapter 17, "Portal Server".
Back Up Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access Configuration Information

In some deployment architectures Portal Server Secure Remote Access is deployed on multiple computer systems to provide for scalability and to improve availability. For example, you might have Portal Server Secure Remote Access components running on multiple computers with a load balancer to distribute the load.
In the case of load-balanced instances of Portal Server Secure Remote Access, you can perform a rolling upgrade in which you upgrade the Portal Server Secure Remote Access instances sequentially without interrupting service. You upgrade each instance of Portal Server Secure Remote Access while the others remain running. You perform the upgrade of each instance as described in Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access Upgrade.
Upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 2This section includes information about upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 2 to Java ES Release 4.
The upgrade is performed in two steps: by first upgrading Release 2 to Release 3 and then upgrading from Release 3 to Release 4. Because these two upgrade paths are distinct, this section will focus on the upgrade from Release 2 to Release 3.
Once the upgrade from Release 2 to Release 3 is complete, you can proceed with the upgrade from Release 3 to Release 4, covered in Upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 3.
This section covers the following topics regarding the upgrade from Release 2 to Release 3:
Introduction
When upgrading Java ES Release 2 Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 3, consider the following aspects of the upgrade process:
- General Upgrade Approach. The upgrade is performed by applying patches to the Release 2 version. Re-configuration of Portal Server Secure Remote Access is also required and performed using an upgrade utility.
- Upgrade Dependencies. Portal Server Secure Remote Access has dependencies on a number of Java ES shared components (see Table 1-6), and all these need to be Upgraded to Release 3 because Java ES does not support a mixture of Release 2 and Release 3 components on a single computer.
In addition, Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access is dependent upon Portal Server, Access Manager, and Directory Server as described in Portal Server Secure Remote Access Dependencies. Portal Server Secure Remote Access has a hard upgrade dependency on Portal Server and on Access Manager (or Access Manager SDK) because it resides locally, and has a soft upgrade dependency on Directory Server, since it rarely resides locally.
- Backward Compatibility. Release 3 Portal Server Secure Remote Access is backwardly compatible with the Release 2 version.
- Upgrade Rollback. Rollback of the Release 3 upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access to Release 2 can not be achieved once Portal Server Secure Remote Access re-configuration has been performed.
- Platform Issues. The general approach for upgrading Portal Server Secure Remote Access is the same on both Solaris and Linux operating systems, however the patching technologies are different. The upgrade process therefore includes platform-specific procedures.
Release 2 Portal Server Secure Remote Access Upgrade
This section describes how to perform an upgrade of Portal Server Secure Remote Access from Java ES Release 2 to Java ES Release 3 on both the Solaris and Linux platform. Where a topic depends on platform-specific procedures, the topic will indicate the operating system to which it applies. The section covers the following topics:
Pre-Upgrade Tasks
Before you upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access you should perform the tasks described below.
Verify Current Version Information
You can verify the current version of Portal Server Secure Remote Access using the following commands:
See Table 18-3 for output values.
Upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access Dependencies
Java ES Release 3 does not support the coexistence of Release 2 and Release 3 shared components on a single computer.
You are therefore required to upgrade all local Java ES Release 2 components on which Portal Server Secure Remote Access depends to Release 3. For upgrade procedures see the Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 Upgrade and Migration Guide (http://docs.sun.com/doc/819-0062).
When you upgrade all local Portal Server dependencies on a computer, they should be upgraded in the following order, all before you upgrade Portal Server Secure Remote Access.
- Shared Components. Instructions for upgrading Java ES shared components to Release 3 are provided in the Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 Upgrade and Migration Guide (http://docs.sun.com/doc/819-0062).
- Portal Server. Portal Server Secure Remote Access is rarely dependent on a local Portal Server.
- Access Manager (Access Manager SDK). Instructions for upgrading Access Manager to Release 3 are provided in the Java Enterprise System 2005Q1 Upgrade and Migration Guide (http://docs.sun.com/doc/819-0062).
- Directory Server. Portal Server is rarely dependent on a local Directory Server.
