Upgrading iManager 29novdocx (en) 16 April 20102.2 Authorized UsersWhen upgrading iManager you will not see the Authorized User screen during the install if anexisting configiman.properties file is detected. The install will use the existing Authorized Usersettings from that file.2.3 Updating Role Based ServicesThe first time you use iManager 2.7 to log in to an eDirectory tree that already contains an RBScollection, it is possible that not all of the roles and tasks are displayed. This is working as expectedbecause some of the plug-ins require updates so that iManager 2.7 can fully utilize them. The RBSConfiguration task lists which RBS modules are out-of-date. We recommend that you update yourRBS modules to the latest version so that you can see and use all of the available functionality iniManager 2.7.Be aware that you might have multiple roles with the same name. When plug-ins were updated foriManager 2.5, some plug-in developers changed task IDs or module names but retained the samedisplay names, thus causing the roles to appear to be duplicated when, in fact, one instance is fromone version and the other is from a newer version.NOTE: Because different installations of iManager might have a different number of plug-inslocally installed, you might see discrepancies in the module report for any given collection from theRole Based Services > RBS Configuration page. In order for the numbers to match betweeniManager installations, make sure that the same subset of plug-ins is installed on each iManagerinstance in the tree.To check whether you have outdated RBS objects:1 From the Configure view, select Role Based Services > RBS Configuration.The table on the 2.x Collections tabbed page displays any out-of-date modules.2 To update them, select the number in the Out-Of-Date column for the Collection you want toupdate.The list of outdated modules is displayed.3 Select the module you want to update, then click Update at the top of the table.NOTE: When updating to iManager 2.7, or re-installing iManager 2.7, existing plug-ins are notupdated automatically. To update plug-ins manually, launch iManager and browse to Configure >Plug-in Installation > Available Novell Plug-in Modules. For more information, see “Plug-InModule Installation” in the iManager 2.7.4 Administration Guide.2.4 Re-Installing or Migrating Plug-in StudioPlug-insTo migrate or replicate Plug-in Studio plug-ins to another iManager instance, or a new or updatedversion of iManager, do the following:1.
