3.
Warn other ePolicy Orchestrator users that during the installation process they might see changing content or be logged
out of their current ePolicy Orchestrator console session.
Installing ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 Patch 5
1.
Copy the upgrade installation zip file to a temporary directory.
2.
Extract the contents of the zip file into the temporary directory.
3.
In the extracted files, run Setup.exe.
4.
Click Next.
5.
Type in the ePolicy Orchestrator credentials for a global administrator.
Note: McAfee recommends you use an existing global administrator with a simple password when installing this Patch.
If the user is not a global administrator or the password includes characters other than those listed in the official
character set (see Known Issues above) the installation will fail.
6.
Click Next.
7.
Choose the port that the Event Parser-to-Application Server will use, then click Next.
Note: This step is required only when installing over ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 RTW, not over Patches.
8.
Choose the port that the Sensor-to-Server will use, then click Next.
Note: When prompted for a port for the Sensor-to-Server, you must specify an unused port.
9.
Click Next to start the automated installation process.
10.
When the installation is complete, click Finish.
11.
Manually determine if any extension upgrades failed, because individual extension upgrade failures do not cause the
ePolicy Orchestrator 4.0 Patch 5 installation to fail. A record of the failed extension check-ins can be found in %TEMP%
\NAILogs\EPO400-Checkin-Falure.log file. Any failed extensions can be rechecked in through the management console
after the Patch installation is complete.
