Installation Notes


Update Notes

When updating Identity Manager, review the installation section for your application server for application server-specific instructions. This section includes a summary of upgrade tasks for upgrading from Identity Manager version 6.0 to 6.0 SP4. For more information, see the Identity Manager 6.0 Upgrade manual.

Identity Install Pack 2005Q4M3 SP4 can be updated from the following previous versions:

Use the following information and procedures to update Identity Manager.


Note  In some environments, including HP-UX, you may be required or prefer to follow the alternate, manual update procedures. If so, skip to the section titled Update Identity Manager Manually.


Note  Identity Manager 6.0 involves a schema change that introduces new tables for tasks, groups, organizations, and the syslog table. You must create these new table structures and move your existing data. See Step 2: Update the Repository Database Schema in the Documentation Additions and Corrections section of this document.


Note  If you edited the Access Review Notice email template in Identity Manager version 6.0, you must either save the template before upgrading Identity Manager or edit the template after you upgrade. (The upgrade process overwrites the template with the default values.) (ID-13216)

  2. Change to the directory where the gateway is installed.
  3. Stop the gateway service by running the command:
  4. gateway -k

  5. If using Windows 2000 or later, exit all instances of the Services MMC plug-in.
  6. Delete the existing gateway files.
  7. If the newly updated gateway is installed on a system that is not the Identity Manager server, then copy the gateway.zip file from the location the installation image was unpacked.
  8. Unpack the gateway.zip file into the directory where the gateway was installed.
  9. Run the following command to start the gateway service:
  10. gateway -s

You can also start and stop the gateway by following these steps:
