Upgrade the products on 4400 or 5500 appliances If your product is at version 9.2.0, 9.2.1, or 9.2.2, you can upgrade directly to 9.3.0. Before you begin





Download the product archive.



Stop all scans and search tasks, and wait until they are completely stopped.

If you are running version 9.2.0 on a McAfee DLP Manager or a standalone McAfee DLP product on a model 4400 appliance, and you want to perform a backup before upgrading, you must apply hotfix 754037_45668_01. McAfee recommends performing frequent backups. Without a backup, the data, settings, and configuration on your appliance might be lost in the event of a system failure.



To upgrade a product, you must install the new image on the disk that is not used by the previous installation. This ensures that the original image can still be accessed after the upgrade is complete. The system automatically boots from the latest image. The install_to_pri and install_to_sec scripts install the upgrade. After the process runs, the existing configuration and database are copied to the new image. If you use the wrong script, you will write over your existing installation.

Task 1

Using a command line session, log on to the appliance as root.

2

Make an installation directory. # mkdir /data/install

3

Copy the archive to the appliance. •

If you downloaded the archive to a Windows‑based computer, use WinSCP.

5

Go to the /data/install directory. # cd /data/install

6

Extract the contents of the archive. # tar xvzf ndlp_.tgz

7

Run the system_info utility to determine if the system is currently using the primary or secondary image. # /data/stingray/ksh/system_info Install the update on the disk that is not used. Example: Install the update on the secondary disk with install_to_sec if system_info returns this message: "The system is currently running from the primary image."

8

Run the installation script. Before you type the command, run pwd to establish that you are in the correct product directory. You must be sure that you are running the updated scripts in the upgrade archive that you just downloaded and extracted.

# ./install_to_pri . or # ./install_to_sec . where is imanager, iguard, idiscover, or iprevent. The product image installs on the primary or secondary disk. When the upgrade is complete, a message appears stating which image the appliance will boot to next. 9
