Upgrade the Administrative UI Using a UNIX Console

To upgrade the Administrative UI

1. Exit all applications that are running.
2. Stop the application server that is hosting the Administrative UI.

   Note: For more information about stopping the application server, see the r12.1 Policy Server Installation Guide.

3. Open a shell and navigate to the installation executable.

   Important! The installation zip contains a layout.properties file and a Framework folder at the same level as the Administrative UI executable. If you moved the Administrative UI executable after extracting the installation zip, move the following to the same location as the Administrative UI executable or the upgrade will fail:

   • layout.properties file
   • Framework folder
4. Enter the following command:

   ./installation_media -i console
   

   installation_media

   Specifies the Administrative UI installation executable.

   The installer starts.

   Note: For a list of installation media names for each operating system, see the installation and upgrade considerations in the Release Notes.

5. Follow the prompts and confirm that the installer can upgrade the Administrative UI.
6. Review the installation settings and press Enter.

   The installer confirms that the Administrative UI is installed.

7. Start the application server that is hosting the Administrative UI.

   Note: For more information about starting the application server, see the r12.1 Policy Server Installation Guide.

   The Administrative UI is upgraded.
