Upgrade the UNAB RPM Package

If an existing version of UNAB is installed and you want to install a new version, you can upgrade the existing version of UNAB without removing the installed version. You use UNAB RPM packages to upgrade UNAB on a Linux computer.

Note: You do not need to manually upgrade ca-lic.

To upgrade the UNAB RPM package

1. Log in to the Linux computer as root.
2. Copy the compressed tar file appropriate for the server platform from the /UNAB directory of the CA ControlMinder Endpoint Components for UNIX DVD to a temporary location on your file system.

   The compressed tar file contains the installation and upgrade files.

3. Navigate to the temporary directory, uncompress and extract the contents from the compressed file. For example, the following commands uncompress a file named _LINUX_Ux_PKG_125.tar.Z:

   unzip _LINUX_Ux_PKG_125.tar.Z
   tar xvf _LINUX_Ux_PKG_125.tar
   

   The compressed package contains the UNAB installation and upgrade files.

4. Use the rpm command to upgrade UNAB. For example:

   rpm -U uxauth-125-3.0.1517.i386.rpm --verbose
   

   The upgrade process begins.

   A message informs you that the upgrade process completed successfully.
