Note: During the upgrade, vasd reloads and updates its user and group cache. To restart the Authentication Services caching service, see Restarting Authentication Services services. |
|
Note: If you are using the licensed version of the Authentication Services agent earlier than 3.0, see Licensing Authentication Services for licensing instructions. |
|
Note: VMware: VMware provides a Host Update Utility to upgrade an ESX 3.5 agent to 4.0, but if Authentication Services is left installed and configured during the procedure, the machine will be inaccessible after the upgrade. This is because the previous 3.5 installation is pushed aside and mounted under the /esx3-installation directory, but all the key configuration files, like /etc/nsswitch.conf and the pam.d directory, are preserved. If Authentication Services is still configured in those files it leaves the machine in a bad state. Because of this, One Identity recommends that you uninstall Authentication Services before attempting to upgrade to ESX 4.0. In the vSphere Upgrade Guide, VMware warns that "no third-party management agents or third-party software applications are migrated," but it does not explicitly say they should be uninstalled prior to upgrade. Should you accidentally leave Authentication Services installed or configured during the upgrade, use the following steps to fix the machine:

Note: 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. |
/etc/init.d/vasd restart
/sbin/init.d/vasd restart
stopsrc -s vasd startsrc -s vasd
|
Note: Due to library changes between the Authentication Services 3.x and 4.1, One Identity recommends that you restart all long-lived processes that use Authentication Services data to force a reload of the newer libraries. For example, you must restart cron. |

Sun introduced Zones (or containers) in Solaris 10. Zones is a partitioning technology used to virtualize operating system services and provide an isolated and secure environment for running applications. There are two types of non-global zone root filesystem models:
The sparse root zone model optimizes the sharing of objects while the whole root zone model provides the maximum configurability. Additional information on Solaris 10 and Zones can be found at www.sun.com.
