This chapter describes how to upgrade your CSRC installation to version 1.0(1). The CSRC installer checks to see if you have a previous version of CSRC installed. If so, the installer does the following to upgrade your CSRC installation:
To upgrade CSRC to version 1.0(1), you will need the following:
The process used to upgrade CSRC involves upgrading the CSRC software packages and restoring previous schema and file modifications. Cisco recommends that you first review the following upgrade process summary to familiarize yourself with the overall upgrade process.
For more detailed information, see the appropriate sections in this guide.
The CSRC upgrade process consists of the following steps:
Step 1 Stop the CSRC servers.
Step 2 Upgrade the LDAP data CSRC package.
Step 3 Restore LDAP schema extensions.
Step 4 Upgrade the remaining CSRC software packages.
Step 5 Restore file customizations for replaced files.
Step 6 Start the CSRC servers.
Step 7 Verify the installation.
Step 8 Configure your cable network for CSRC.
To upgrade to CSRC version 1.0(1), you must do the following:
During the upgrade installation, the CSRC installer does not replace the existing csrc.cfg configuration file in the C:\Program Files\CSRC\conf directory. If the installer adds or modifies parameters in the csrc.cfg file, a message appears indicating that the installer is updating the file.
After the CSRC installer finishes installing all of the CSRC files, it inserts the license key you specified into the license key parameter in the csrc.cfg file.
The CSRC installer copies the CSRC files from the distribution media to the C:\Program Files\CSRC directory. During the upgrade process, the installer checks for an existing CSRC file before it installs a new file. The way in which the installer treats the existing file depends upon the file's category. The installer creates a log file called update.log.# to provide information about the files installed under the specific file categories. For more information, see the "The CSRC Installer Log File" section.
The file categories are the following:
During the upgrade installation, the installer creates a log file if it upgraded previously installed CSRC components. The log file is called update.log.# (where # is a number that starts at one and increments as necessary) and it is located in the C:\Program Files\CSRC directory. After the installation completes, the installer saves the update.log.# file on disk for later examination and it displays a message to refer you to the file.
The update.log.# file contains the following upgrade information:
The "CSRC Installation Worksheet" (Table 2-1) helps you to enter consistent parameter values as you upgrade the CSRC components.
Before you begin upgrading the CSRC software packages, do the following:
The following sections discuss how to upgrade to CSRC 1.0(1).
Step 1 of the CSRC upgrade process is to Stop the CSRC servers.
To Stop the Netscape Application Server (NAS), do the following:
Step 1 On the Windows NT taskbar, select the following menu sequence:
Start>Settings>Control Panel>Services
Step 2 Highlight the NAS 2.1 service and click Stop.
Step 3 To confirm that NAS has stopped, invoke the Task Manager and make sure the following processes are not running:
If any of these processes are running, highlight the task and click End Task.
Step 4 Stop the TFTP server from the nrcmd command line interface by typing the following command:
tftp stop
Step 2 of the CSRC upgrade process is to upgrade the LDAP data CSRC package. For sites that have all the CSRC components on one machine, LDAP is upgraded as part of the installation process. If you have LDAP on a separate machine, you must run the update install on that machine first so that the LDAP data CSRC is upgraded before any of the other CSRC packages.
For more information, refer to "Completing the CSRC Installation" section.
Step 3 of the CSRC upgrade process is to restore the LDAP schema extensions. You must restore LDAP schema extensions before you install the remaining CSRC software packages. To do this, you execute the csrc_schema_add.pl program on the csrc_schema_ext.dat LDAP data file, placing all of your previous cumulative additions into the new data file.
To restore your LDAP schema extensions in the Netscape Directory Server (NDS), do the following:
Step 1 Make a copy of your data and schema files and store them in a safe place.
Step 2 Execute the csrc_schema_add.pl script file on the data file, adding your previously added schema extensions. This script is located in the /opt/csrc/conf directory and uses the following input parameters:
The csrc_schema_add.pl script creates additional data files.
Step 3 Enter yes when the csrc_schema_add.pl script asks the following question:
Do you want to install files to a permanent directory? yes
Step 4 Check the csrc_schema_add.pl script's error messages to verify that the changes were successfully installed and integrated into the CSRC and NDS environments.
Step 5 Stop NDS when the csrc_schema_add.pl script asks you to do so. For more information, see the Netscape Directory Server documentation.
Step 6 On the Windows NT taskbar, select the following menu sequence:
Start>Settings>Control Panel>Services
Step 7 Highlight the NAS 2.1 service and click Stop.
Step 8 Restart NDS.
Step 9 Restart NAS after the Web user interface component has been upgraded and you have restored all user customizations to it.
For more information about extending the CSRC schema, see the User Registrar User's Guide.
Step 4 of the CSRC upgrade process is to upgrade the remaining CSRC software packages. For more information, refer to "Completing the CSRC Installation" section.
Step 5 of the upgrade process is to restore file customizations for the files replaced during CSRC upgrade installation. The CSRC installer saves the modifications you made to the previously installed files. After you install the CSRC packages, a message appears instructing you to check the update.log.# log file in the C:\Program Files\CSRC directory for information about restoring your previous file customizations.
For more information, see the "Saving Previous File Modifications" section and the "The CSRC Installer Log File" section.
Step 6 of the upgrade process is to start these CSRC servers: the Netscape Application Server (NAS) and the Cisco Network Registrar TFTP server.
Step 1 The CSRC installer asks if you want to reboot. Depending on your customizations, choose one of these procedures:
When your system reboots, the NAS starts automatically. However, you must manually start the TFTP server.
Step 2 Start the TFTP server from the nrcmd command line interface by typing the following command:
tftp start
Step 7 of the upgrade process is to verify the installation. For more information, see the "Step 7Verifying the CSRC Installation" section.
Step 8 of the upgrade process is to configure your cable network for CSRC before you begin using the CSRC software. For more information, see "Configuring Your Network for CSRC."
