Main Upgrade Procedures

You upgrade most software components by using the Upgrade Wizard, which appears when you run the CA Identity Manager installer from the CA Identity Manager media. This wizard detects previous versions of CA Identity Manager, prompts you through the upgrade process in the correct sequence, and launches all component installers from one location. Be sure that you have 2GB of available space in the %TEMP% directory before running the upgrade wizard.

The wizard does not apply if you have certain versions of the application server. Instead, you migrate the Identity Manager Server, which means you perform an installation and reinstallation of that server.

The following sections explain the upgrade and migration procedures.

Important! Be sure to disable all antivirus software before installation. If antivirus software is enabled while installation takes place, problems can occur. Remember to re-enable your antivirus protection after you complete the installation.
