Migrating the Database to Release 6.0 for AuthMinder Components

Important! Perform the procedure that is described in this section only if you are upgrading from 5.3.x or 5.4.x. If you are upgrading from 6.x or 7.0, do not migrate the database to 6.0 for AuthMinder.

After you migrate the database for Arcot common components, migrate the database to the release 6.0 state for AuthMinder components.

Follow these steps:

1. Copy the arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0.zip file to the %ARCOT_HOME% directory.
2. Unzip the arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0.zip file in this directory.
3. Navigate to the following directory:

   %ARCOT_HOME%\arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0\dbscripts\<db_type>
   

4. Run the scripts in the following order:
   1. arcot-db-config-for-webfort-6.0.sql
   2. upgrade-for-webfort.sql
5. Open the command prompt window.
6. Change your working directory to:

   %ARCOT_HOME%\arcot-webfort-upgrade-5.x-6.0\tools\<platform_name>
   

7. At the prompt, run the following command:

   wfupgrade.exe -migrate
   

   The preceding command loads the OpenSSL CA and the domain key that is used for the ArcotID PKI, and migrates the configuration data from older database tables to the release 6.0 tables.

   The wfupgrade tool generates the webfort-6.0-upgrade.log file in the %ARCOT_HOME%\logs\ directory.

   Important! Ensure that you run the wfupgrade upgrade tool from the system where the AuthMinder Server is installed.

8. Open the webfort-6.0-upgrade.log file in a text editor and ensure that it does not contain any FATAL and WARNING messages.

   Important! While migrating the database, if you encounter errors due to a step that you have performed incorrectly, restore the database backup that you created earlier. After you verify that the database is correctly restored, retry the database migration procedure.
