Environment
Novell User Application 3.0.1
Novell Identity Manager 3.0.1
Novell Identity Manager 3.0.1
Situation
How do you upgrade your existing IDM 3.0 User Application to the
IDM 3.0.1 User Application?
Resolution
1. Before you begin:
* Back up
your existing User Application installation directory and
database.
* Back up any customized Identity Self-Service pages by using the Import/Export tools available through the User Application's Administration > Tools page.
* Make note of your existing User Application Configuration settings (such as the eDirectory Connection Settings, eDirectory DNs and eDirectory Certificates). You will be required to re-enter this information during the installation
procedure. You can obtain your current settings by running the configupdate utility, which is located in the User Application installation directory (for example, c:\novell\idm).
2. Install the IDM 3.0.1 User Application using the Custom installation with the User Application and JBoss options selected(see Note below regarding in process resource request tasks).
3. Empty the jboss/server//work directory before starting
JBoss server.
Note: After migrating from IDM 3 to IDM 3.0.1, in process resource request tasks might fail to display. To work around the problem, complete the following before installing IDM 3.0.1:
1. Stop the jboss application server and delete the jboss/server/IDMProv/work directory.
2. If you have already installed Identity Manager 3.0.1, stop the jboss server and then delete the jboss/server/IDMProv/work directory. The jboss server must not be running while you delete the work folder.
