Convert an installation to another McAfee DLP product
The 4400 appliance ships with McAfee DLP Manager, but that installation can be converted to another
Data Loss Prevention product. However, only one product can be installed on the appliance, so the
primary and secondary images must both be installed with that product.
Before you begin
Download the product archive and copy it to the appliance.

Go to the installation directory.
