Disabling automatic software update

NOTE: If the Common | Autoupdate configuration parameter is deactivated, no automatic update is performed across the system.

Under certain circumstances, it is necessary to exclude individual workstations, server, or web applications.

Disabling workstation automatic update

To disable automatic update locally on a workstation, set the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\One Identity\One Identity Manager\Global\Settings\AutoUpdateEnabled registry key to false.

This disables automatic updating completely on this workstation.

Disabling a Job server automatic update

Configure the Job server automatic update in the Job server entry.

To exclude individual Job servers from updating automatically

  1. In the Designer, select the Base Data > Installation > Job server category.

  2. Select the Job server to be edited in the Job server overview.

  3. On the Properties tab, enable the No automatic software update option.

  4. Select the Database > Save to database and click Save.

Disabling the Web Designer Web Portal automatic update

You can disable Web Designer Web Portal updates in the database.

To disable the automatic Web Designer Web Portal update

  1. In the Designer, select the Base data > Security settings > Web server configurations category.

  2. In the list view, select the entry for the Web Designer Web Portal.

  3. On the Properties tabs, change the value of the Auto update level to inactive.

  4. Select the Database > Save to database and click Save.

Disabling automatic application server update

Configure automatic updating in the application server's web.config file. For more information, see Updating application servers.

Updating One Identity Manager

Updating One Identity Manager tools includes updating the One Identity Manager database and the existing installations on One Identity Manager network workstations and servers.

Database updates are necessary when hotfixes and service packs or complete version updates are available for One Identity Manager.

  • Hotfix

    A hotfix contains corrections to the default configuration of the current main version but no extension of functionality. A hotfix can supply patches for issues solved in synchronization projects.

  • Service pack

    A service pack contains minimal extensions of functionality and all the modifications since the last main version that were already included in the hotfixes. A service pack can supply patches with new functions for synchronization projects.

  • Version change

    A version change means that significant extensions of functionality have been made and involves a complete re-installation. A version change can supply milestones for updating synchronization projects. Milestones group together all patches for solved issues and patches required for new features of the previous version.

    2. Change to the Installation tab. Select the edition that you installed.

    3. Click Install.

      This starts the installation wizard.

    4. Follow the installation instructions.

      IMPORTANT: On the Installation Settings page, select the directory for your current installation as the installation directory. Otherwise the components are not updated and a new installation is created in the second directory instead.

  3. End the One Identity Manager Service on the update server.

  4. Create a back up of the One Identity Manager database.

  5. Check whether the database's compatibility level is set the 140 and change it if necessary.

  6. Run a schema update of the One Identity Manager database.

    • Start the Configuration Wizard on the administrative workstation.

      Select a user who has at least administrative permissions for the One Identity Manager database to update the One Identity Manager schema with the Configuration Wizard.

      • Use the same user that you used to initially install the schema.

      • If you created an administrative user during schema installation, use that one.

      • If you selected a user with Windows authentication to install the schema, you must use the same one for updating.

      NOTE: If you want to switch to the granular permissions concept when you upgrade from version 8.0.x to 8.2.1, you will also require an installation user in accordance with Users with granular permission for the One Identity Manager database on an SQL Server.

      After updating One Identity Manager, change the connection parameters. This affect the connection credentials for the database (DialogDatabase), for example, the One Identity Manager Service, the application server, administration, and configuration tools, web applications and web services, and the connection credentials in synchronization projects.

      If you want to switch to granular permissions when you update from 8.1.x, contact support. To access the Support Portal, go to https://support.oneidentity.com/identity-manager/.

    3. Click Install.

      This starts the installation wizard.

    4. Follow the installation instructions.

      IMPORTANT: On the Installation Settings page, select the directory for your current installation as the installation directory. Otherwise the components are not updated and a new installation is created in the second directory instead.

  8. Check the One Identity Manager Service‘s login information. Specify the service account to use.

  9. Start the One Identity Manager Service on the update server.

  10. Update other installations on workstations and servers.

    You can use the automatic software update method for updating existing installations.

    NOTE: In some cases it may be necessary to update the additional workstations and Job servers manually. This may be required, for example, if there are a significant number of new changes with a One Identity Manager version update that do not allow the use of automatic update.

To update synchronization projects to a new version

Any required changes to system connectors or the synchronization engine are made available when you update One Identity Manager. These changes must be applied to existing synchronization projects to prevent target system synchronizations that are already set up, from failing. Patches are available for this.

NOTE: Some patches are applied automatically. A process that migrates all existing synchronization project is queued in the Job queue to do this. To run the process, the One Identity Manager Service must be started on the database server and on all the synchronization servers.

  • Check whether the DPR_Migrate_Shell process has been started successfully.

    If a patch could not be applied, for example because the target system was not available, you can apply the patch manually later.

For more information about applying patches, see the One Identity Manager Target System Synchronization Reference Guide.
