Upgrading - Novell ZENWORKS ENDPOINT SECURITY MANAGEMENT 3.5 Installation Manual

Upgrading

1 1
To upgrade your software from one release to another, complete the following process:
1 Export all policies. For instructions, see
Security Management Administration
2 Export all encryption keys. For instructions, see
Security Management Administration
You do not have to export the encryption keys if you exported your encryption policies. Each
encryption policy includes all encryption keys. However, it is best practice to export the keys
regularly to back up the keys, so we recommend that you do it at this time.
3 Uninstall the Management Service, Policy Distribution Service, and Management Console. To
do so, use the Windows Add/Remove Programs feature.
You can uninstall the components in any order. Make sure you also remove the databases.
4 Reinstall the components in the following order:
Policy Distribution Service
Management Service
Management Console
If you are installing the Policy Distribution Service and Management Service on the same
machine, see Chapter 3, "Performing a Single-Server Installation," on page 19
If you are installing them on separate machines, see
Installation," on page
For Management Console installation instructions, see
Management Console Installation," on page
5 Import the policies using the Management Console. For instructions, see
in the ZENworks Endpoint Security Management Administration
6 Import the encryption keys. For instructions, see
Security Management Administration
If you've already imported your encryption policies, this step is not necessary. However, it
doesn't harm your system and ensures that your system contains all of the encryption keys.
7 Uprade the Security clients. For instructions, see
in the ZENworks Endpoint Security Management Administration
Typically, the new certificates for the Management Service and Policy Distribution Service
work with the Security clients existing certificates. If you encounter problems with Security
clients communicating with the services, redistribute the new certificates as part of the client
upgrade.
