™
System Identity
Manager Upgrade.
• Before upgrading, it is important to back up both the directory where Identity Manager is
installed and the database that Identity Manager is using. You can use third-party back up
software or a back up utility supplied with your system to back up the Identity Manager
file system. To back up your database, refer to the database documentation for
recommended back up procedures. (ID-2810)
When you are ready to create your backups, you must first shutdown (or idle) Identity
Manager. Then, use your backup utilities to back up your database and the file system
where you installed Identity Manager.
• The AD Active Sync resource has been deprecated and replaced by the AD resource.
Perform the following steps to migrate to the AD Active Sync to newer releases: (ID-11363)
❍ Export the existing AD Active Sync resource object to an xml file (either from the
command line or debug pages).
❍ Delete the existing resource (this will not affect Identity Manager users or resource
account users)
❍ Create a new AD resource that is Active Sync.
❍ Export this new resource object to an XML file.
NOTE Because software product developers frequently ship new versions, updates, and
fixes to their software, the software and environment versions supported by Identity
Manager changes often. Review the “Supported Software and Environments”
section of the Identity Manager Release Notes before proceeding with installation.
