Once you have successfully added and profiled one or more hosts, and checked them for AD Readiness, you can remotely deploy software products to them from the management console.
To install Safeguard Authentication Services software on hosts
Note: The Install Software tool bar menu is enabled when you select hosts that are profiled.
The tool bar button will not be active if:
Note: You must install the Safeguard Authentication Services Agent and the Group Policy packages.
Note: If you do not see all of these software packages, verify the path to the software packages is correctly set in System Settings. Refer to Set the Safeguard Authentication Services Client Software Location on the Server in the management console online help for details.
Note: This task requires elevated credentials.
If you selected multiple hosts, it asks whether you want to use the same credentials for all the hosts (default) or enter different credentials for each host.
The easiest way to upgrade Safeguard Authentication Services client components is from Management Console for Unix. Once a you have successfully added and profiled one or more hosts, you can remotely deploy software products to them from the management console. For more information, see Configure Unix agent components.
You can also upgrade your Safeguard Authentication Services client components from the Unix command line, if you prefer.
The first time you install or upgrade the Safeguard Authentication ServicesWindows components in your environment, One Identity recommends that you configure Active Directory for Safeguard Authentication Services to utilize full functionality. This is a one-time Active Directory configuration step that creates the Safeguard Authentication Services application configuration in your forest. Safeguard Authentication Services uses the information found in the application configuration to maintain consistency across the enterprise.
If you upgrade Safeguard Authentication Services using Management Console for Unix, the Safeguard Authentication Services Active Directory Configuration Wizard starts automatically to assist you in setting up the application configuration; however, if you are upgrading from the Unix command line, you can create the Safeguard Authentication Services application configuration using the vastool command.
Note: You need only one application configuration per forest. If you already have an Safeguard Authentication Services application configuration in your forest, you do not need to create another one. For more information, see About Active Directory configuration.

Note: During the upgrade, vasd reloads and updates its user and group cache. To restart the Safeguard Authentication Services caching service, see Restarting services.
Note: Oracle Solaris: The -a vasclient-defaults option specifies an alternative default file for pkgadd administrative options that allows pkgadd to overwrite an existing package with a new package.
pkgadd does not support the concept of upgrading a package, so this allows you to upgrade without having to rejoin your machine to the Active Directory domain, or uninstalling the old version first.
Note: HP-UX: Reboot the HP-UX machine to ensure that all of the new files are installed. HP-UX does not allow you to overwrite files that are in use—this is done as part of the boot sequence.
