4.2 Upgrading after Identity Manager Is Installed

If Identity Manager 3.5.1 is already installed, you can use either Designer for Identity Manager or iManager to upgrade the JDBC driver.

4.2.1 Upgrading the Driver by Using Designer

  1. Make sure that you have updated your driver with all the patches for the version you are currently running.

    We recommend this step for all drivers, to help minimize upgrade issues.

  2. Back up the driver.

    See Section 18.0, Backing Up the JDBC Driver.

  3. Install Designer version 2.1or later, then launch Designer.

    If you had a project open in Designer when you upgraded Designer, proceed to Step 4. If you didn’t have a project open in Designer when you upgraded Designer, skip to Step 5.

  4. If you had a project open when upgrading Designer, read the warning message, then click OK.

    Warning the editors will be closed and project needs to be opened.

    Designer closes the project to preform the upgrade.

  5. To open and convert the project, double-click System Model in the Project view.

4.2.2 Upgrading the Driver by Using iManager

  1. Make sure that you have updated your driver with all the patches for the version you are currently running.

    To help minimize upgrade issues, we recommend that you complete this step on all drivers.

  2. Back up the driver.

    See Section 18.0, Backing Up the JDBC Driver.

  3. Verify that Identity Manager 3.5.1 has been installed and that you have the current plug-ins installed.

  4. Launch iManager.

  5. Click Identity Manager > Identity Manager Overview.

  6. Click Search to find the Driver Set object, then click the driver that you want to upgrade.

  7. Read the message that is displayed, then click OK.

IMPORTANT:The example configuration file for the updated driver changed for the Identity Manager 3.0 release. If your current configuration meets your requirements, you don’t need to import this example configuration. If you do import the new sample configuration, you will see an additional driver for Delimited Text with a new name, a new Identity Vault container specified in the placement rule, and new rule names.
