Upgrading Sun OTP Using Standard Upgrade

This section describes the procedure to upgrade Sun OTP using the standard upgrade method. It includes both the GUI and CLI procedures, and details about how to upgrade the remaining service and install the security service.

ProcedureTo Upgrade Sun OTP from 1.1 to Sun OTP 2.0 Using the GUI

Before You Begin

Upgrade Sun OTP 1.1 Provisioning Server to Version 2.0

  1. Open a browser and log in to the Sun OTP application provisioning service on the Sun OTP provisioning server.

    Go to URL https://install server:9090 where install server is either the IP address or the fully qualified name of the Sun OTP provisioning server.

  2. Type the user name and password.

    The user name is otpadmin. The password is the password provided in the password file while setting up the Sun OTP provisioning server.

  3. Click OTP Upgrade in the left panel.

  4. Set up the configuration for upgrade by creating two variable sets.

    Run this plan on all the Sun OTP hosts.

    1. Click Set up Configuration and click run.

    2. Click the select from list... option corresponding to the /com/sun/OTP/Utilities/OTPConfig directory.

    3. Click create set to create a new variable set.

ProcedureTo Upgrade Sun OTP from 1.1 to 2.0 Using CLI

Before You Begin

Upgrade Sun OTP 1.1 Provisioning Server to Version 2.0

  1. Log in as root (su - root) to the Sun OTP provisioning server.

  2. Copy the input_otp.dat file to a NFS-mounted directory.

    cp /opt/SUNWotp/cli/templates/input_otp.dat /export/

  3. Edit the /export/input_otp.dat file to add the values for each variable.

    For description about the Sun OTP plan settings and the clustered Sun OTP host plan worksheet, see Appendix A Sun OTP Upgrade Plan Worksheet.

    Note –

    Do not specify the values for the zone-related variables and specify RAW for the spsRAConnectionType variable.

    For each host, specify the values for the following upgrade-related variables.

    h1_UpgradelogFile - Path of the log file that would contain the output of upgrade operation. For example, /var/OTP/OTPUpgrade.log.

    upgradeType - standard.

  4. Set up the configuration for upgrade.

    /opt/SUNWotp/cli/deploy_otp -u S -f /export/input_otp.dat -o "-P passwordfile"

    passwordfile is the absolute path of the password file. You can create this file in your home directory. The password file must contain a line with a valid password for all Sun OTP components. The password can be 8 to 12 alphanumeric characters. You need to use this password and the user name otpadmin as the access credentials for all Sun OTP components including Web SSO.

  5. Back up the Sun OTP system management data.

    /opt/SUNWotp/cli/deploy_otp -u b -f /export/input_otp.dat -o "-B hostname"

    hostname is the first host name that is running the Sun OTP system management service.

  6. Upgrade the operating system.

    /opt/SUNWotp/cli/deploy_otp -u P -f /export/input_otp.dat
