Updating Connector/Collector Plug-Ins
If a new version of a Connector or Collector is released, you can update the Sentinel system and any
deployed instances of the Connector or Collector.
NOTE: When you use the Sentinel Control Center to browse to locate a file on the desktop of the
Collector Manager, clicking Desktop takes you to the desktop of the user running the Collector
Manager, usually SYSTEM. Extra steps might be necessary to navigate to the correct user's
desktop.
To update a Connector or Collector plug-in:
1 Click Tools and select Import plugin. The Import Plugin Wizard window displays.
2 Select from the two options available in this window. Click Next.
3 Browse to a location of the Connector or Collector Plugin package file, select the file, click
OK, then click Next.
If the file imported is not in the format specified for the Collector scripts or for the Connector
plug-in package, system displays an error message.
4 (Conditional) If you are updating an already-imported Connector or Collector, you are
provided with the option of updating the existing plug-in, going back and selecting a different
plug-in, or canceling the import. If you want to continue, click Next.
