The executable on the SiteMinder media upgrades your existing SiteMinder Web Agents to r12.0 SP2, provided the web server version has not changed since the last installation of the Web Agent.
If you have upgraded the web server itself since you last installed the Web Agent, the Agent upgrade may not work. The upgrade is ensured only if the web server version has remained the same since the last Web Agent installation. However, you can upgrade if you have applied a hotfix.
Important! Remove any 5.x Web Agent Option Packs before upgrading to r12.0 SP2. 6.x Web Agent Option Packs do not need to be removed before upgrading to r12.0 SP2. For more information about removing and reinstalling Web Agent Option Packs, see the SiteMinder Web Agent Option Pack Guide.
To upgrade a Web Agent on UNIX systems
Note: If you are upgrading an existing r12 Web Agent to r12 SP1, you must login as the root user. If you are installing a new r12 SP1 Web Agent, root privileges are not required.
ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin
chmod +x ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin
./ca-wa-version-operating_system.bin
The Confirm Upgrade dialog box is displayed.
The new Web Agent files are copied to the specified location.
The Web Agent upgrade is complete. If the system with the 5.x Web Agent being upgraded has not previously been registered as a trusted host, you need to register at the system at some point.
