Chapter 3: Upgrading Websense Enterprise or Web Security Suite
 Upgrading distributed components: To upgrade your system, you must
run the Websense installer on each machine on which a Websense
component resides. The installer detects all Websense components,
including the Sun Web Proxy Plug-in, and upgrades them accordingly.
 Upgrading the Sun Web Proxy Plug-in: To upgrade the filtering plug-in
for your integration product, run the Websense installer on the Sun Java
System Web Proxy Server machine and follow the onscreen instructions.
For proper communication to be established with the Sun Java System
Web Proxy Server, you must upgrade the Websense Filtering Service
before upgrading the filtering plug-in.
 Remote Control Utilities: Upgrade of Websense software using a remote
control utility such as Terminal Services is not supported.
 Reporting: To properly generate reports, you must use the same version
of Websense filtering software and Websense Reporting Tools.
For information about upgrading Reporting components, see the
Reporting Installation Guide for Websense Enterprise and Web Security
Suite.
 Websense services: Websense services must be running when the
upgrade process begins. The installer will stop and start these services as
necessary during the upgrade. If these services have been running
uninterrupted for several months, however, the installer may not be able
to stop them before the upgrade process times out. To ensure the success
Warning
Always run the installer on the Policy Server machine
first. The Policy Server must be successfully upgraded and
running before you upgrade or install other Websense
components in your network.
