One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 7.4.2 - Release Notes

Update and installation instructions

CAUTION: For customers upgrading to 7.0 from a previous Safeguard for Privileged Passwords release, be aware the following changes are required prior to upgrading:

The One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 4000 Appliance, 3000 Appliance and 2000 Appliance are built specifically for use only with the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords privileged management software, which is pre-installed and ready for immediate use on the hardened appliances.

Safeguard for Privileged Passwords virtual appliances and cloud applications are also available.

To set up a new deployment: One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords 4000 Appliance, 3000 Appliance and 2000 Appliance Virtual Machine, or Cloud

If this is a new physical appliance, virtual machine, or cloud deployment, see the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance Setup Guide. The guide is also included in the package with a physical appliance.

To update an existing physical appliance or virtual appliance with this patch

It is the responsibility of the Appliance Administrator to upgrade One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords by installing an update file (patch). Consider the following:

  • Minimum patch version: 7.0.0.18401. If you are running an earlier version of the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance, you must upgrade to this version before applying the 7.4.2 patch.
  • Clustered environment: See the Patching cluster members section in the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Administration Guide for instructions on how to deploy a patch so all appliances in the cluster are on the same version.

Prepare to install a patch

  1. Backup your appliance before you install a patch. Once you install a patch, you cannot uninstall it. See the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Administration Guide, Backup and restore topic.

  2. Download the latest physical appliance patch or virtual appliance patch from the One Identity Support Portal:

    https://support.oneidentity.com/one-identity-safeguard-for-privileged-passwords/download-new-releases

To install the hardware patch

  1. As an Appliance Administrator, log in to the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords client.

  2. Select Appliance Management > Appliance > Patch Updates.

    The current appliance and client versions are displayed.

  3. Click Upload a File and browse to select the update file you downloaded from the One Identity support web site.

    NOTE: When you select a file, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords uploads it to the server, but does not install it.

  4. Once the file has successfully uploaded, click Install Now.

To install the virtual machine patch

  1. Make adequate resources available. The virtual appliances default deploy does not provide adequate resources. The minimum resources required are: 4 CPUs, 10GB RAM, and a 500GB disk. Without adequate disk space, the patch will fail and you will need to expand disk space then re-upload the patch.
  2. Go to the web management console and click Setup and follow the wizard.

Verify successful installation

You can verify that the correct version has been successfully installed from the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords desktop client or the LCD on the One Identity Safeguard for Privileged Passwords Appliance.

To verify the uploaded patch was installed

  1. Log in to the Safeguard for Privileged Passwords client as an Operations Administrator or an Appliance Administrator.
  2. Select Appliance Management > Appliance > Appliance Information.
  3. Verify the correct appliance version is displayed in the appliance properties pane.

In addition, when the appliance is running, the LCD home screen on the front panel of the appliance displays Safeguard for Privileged Passwords <version number>. Therefore, you can verify the correct appliance version is running from there, as well.
