CiscoSecure ACS 2.3 for UNIX User Guide

Upgrading from CiscoSecure ACS 2.x to 2.3

Step 7 During installation, enter your old software license key (either primary or backup) when prompted by

the installer and complete the installation.

Note If you did not enter the software key value at the time of installation, you can specify it after

installation in the CiscoSecure License Key field in the CiscoSecure ACS AAA General web

page.

Note Depending on the number of user profiles existing in the CiscoSecure ACS database, the

database upgrade phase of CiscoSecure installation could take some time. Conversion time is

approximately 5 minutes for every 10,000 user profiles.

Step 8 If the CiscoSecure installation procedure fails during the database upgrade phase due to a fixable

condition (such as database resources errors):

a. Fix the condition that caused the failure.

Note If the failed upgrade was for a Sybase Enterprise database from CiscoSecure ACS 2.0 format to

CiscoSecure ACS 2.3 format, you must manually update the database schema. See “If

CiscoSecure Installation Does Not Update the Sybase Database,” page xxiii for details.

b. Manually complete the database upgrade procedure by changing to the CiscoSecure

$BASEDIR/utils/bin directory and running the CSdbTool utility. Enter:

./CSdbTool upgrade

c. Remove the CiscoSecure binary files again. Enter:

pkgrm CSCEacs

d. Restart the CiscoSecure installation. Enter:

pkgadd -d /cdrom/csus_23 CSCEacs

Even though the database upgrade is now complete, running the installation procedure again ensures that

all other necessary installation tasks will be carried out. Because the CiscoSecure ACS database upgrade

is already complete, this portion of the installation will now be skipped.
