Implementing the automatic software update

The following permissions are required for automatic software updating:

  • It is recommended that you apply full access permissions to the One Identity Manager installation directory for automatic updating of One Identity Manager tools.

  • The service's user account needs full access to the One Identity Manager Service installation directory in order to automatically update One Identity Manager.

To implement automatic software updating

  1. Ensure that an update server is set up. This server ensures that the other servers are updated automatically.

    • The server must be entered in the database as a Job server with the server function Update server.

    • A One Identity Manager Service with direct access to the database must be installed and configured on the server.

  2. In the Designer, check the Common | Autoupdate configuration parameter.

    • If the configuration parameter is set (default), One Identity Manager files that do not have the current revision status, are updated automatically.

    • If this configuration parameter is not set, no automatic update is performed.

  3. Use the Common | AutoUpdate | AllowOutOfTimeApps configuration parameter to define whether the users of the One Identity Manager tools can decide when the update of their workstation takes place.

    • If this configuration parameter is set, users of One Identity Manager tools are prompted to decide whether they want to update now or later.

    • If this configuration parameter is not set, the One Identity Manager tools are updated immediately.

  4. In the Common | Autoupdate | ServiceUpdateType configuration parameter, determine which procedure is used to update the One Identity Manager Service.

    Table 20: Methods under to the configuration parameter Common | Autoupdate | ServiceUpdateType
    Method Meaning

    Queue

    A process is queued in the Job queue that distributes the files.

    DB

    The files are reloaded directly from the database. Implement this procedure if all Job servers have a direct connection to the database.

    Auto

    All root servers are filled directly from the database. A process is set up in the Job queue for all leaf servers. For this process, the root servers must have a direct database connection.

  5. Web applications may require some individual configuration settings. Check the configuration settings.

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.

The update process for releasing a new One Identity Manager version

NOTE: Read the release notes for possible differing or additional steps for updating One Identity Manager.

To update the One Identity Manager to a new version

  1. In the Designer, carry out all consistency checks in the Database section.

    1. in the Designer, start the Consistency Editor with the Database > Check data consistency menu item.

    2. In the Test options dialog, click the icon .

    3. Enable all tests in the Database view and click OK.

    4. Start testing with the Consistency check > Run menu item.

      All the database tests must be successful. Correct the errors. Some consistency checks offer repair methods for correcting errors.

  2. Update the administrative workstation on which the One Identity Manager database schema update will start.

    1. Run the autorun.exe program from the root directory on the One Identity Manager installation medium.

    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 150 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 9.1.1, 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/.

  7. Update the One Identity Manager Service on the update server.

    1. Run the program autorun.exe from the root directory on the One Identity Manager installation medium.

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

    3. Click Install.

      This starts the installation wizard.

  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.

To update an application server to a new version
