To Migrate a Version 2.2 Agent:

1. Login to the server where the version 2.2 agent is installed.

   To migrate the agent, you must have write permission to the version 2.2 agent's deployment container files and directories.

2. Stop the Web Server 7.0 instance for the version 2.2 agent.

3. Create a directory to download and unzip the version 3.0 agent. For example: v30agent

4. Download and unzip the version 3.0 agent that corresponds to the version 2.2 agent you are migrating.

   The version 3.0 agents are available from the OpenSSO project site: https://opensso.dev.java.net/public/use/index.html

5. Change to the version 3.0 agent's /bin directory.

   For example, if you downloaded and unzipped the version 3.0 Web Server 7.0 agent in the v30agent directory:

   cd /v30agent/web_agents/sjsws_agent/bin

6. Run the version 3.0 agentadmin program with the --migrate option. For example:

   ./agentadmin --migrate

7. When the agentadmin program prompts you, enter the path to the version 2.2 agent's deployment directory. For example:

   ...
   Enter the migrated agent's deployment directory:
   /opt/web_agents/sjsws_agent
   ...

   In this example, /opt is the directory where you downloaded and upzipped the version 2.2 agent.

   The agentadmin program migrates the version 2.2 agent.

8. Copy the Agent_nnn/config/OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties file to the /bin directory where ssoadm is installed on the OpenSSO Enterprise server.

9. In OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties, add the un-encrypted version 2.2 agent profile password at the end of the file, as follows:

   userpassword=v2.2–agent-profile-password

10. On OpenSSO Enterprise server, create a password file for the OpenSSO Enterprise administrator (amadmin).

    This password file is an ASCII text file with only one line specifying the amadmin password in plain text. For example: /tmp/amadminpw

11. On OpenSSO Enterprise server, run ssoadm to create a new agent configuration in the OpenSSO Enterprise centralized agent configuration repository. For example:

    cd tools_zip_root/opensso/bin
    ./ssoadm create-agent -b WS7v3Agent -t WebAgent -u amadmin 
    -f /tmp/amadminpw -D ./OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties

    In this example:

    • tools_zip_root is the directory where you unzipped openssoAdminTools.zip.

    • WS7v3Agent is the version 3.0 agent configuration name.

    • WebAgent is the agent type for J2EE agents.

    • /tmp/amadminpw is the path to the amadmin password file.

    Caution: After you run ssoadm, you might want to delete OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties from the /bin directory. This file contains sensitive information, including as the agent profile password, and the original file is maintained on the server where the agent is installed.

12. Restart the Web Server 7.0 instance for the migrated agent.

Next Steps

After you migrate the agent, you can manage the new 3.0 agent configuration using the OpenSSO Enterprise Administration Console or the ssoadm utility, as described in Managing the Web Server 7.0 Agent.
