2 Upgrading Fabric Manager Ensure that the recommended J2SE patches for Solaris Java applications are installed. Use the appropriate patch for your version of Solaris. These patches can be found at: http://sunsolve.sun.com/pub-cgi/show.pl?target=patches/patch-access Note You might encounter issues when using XWindows emulators from Windows to access the SUN host. Windows Installation Considerations When you install Fabric Manager over an existing version, the install wizard automatically finds the existing serial number and license key and attempts to validate them. If the serial number and license key are valid, the install wizard does not prompt you to re-enter them. The serial number and license key are saved. If the serial number and license key are not valid, you must re-enter the serial number and license key to install the full version of Fabric Manager. If you launch the Fabric Manager install wizard on a Windows XP or 2003 machine and an After Installation window appears, click Cancel to exit. The After Installation window provides access to a Windows program that exists only on a few Windows XP or 2003 machines (depending on your Windows image). If you do not cancel this program, your Fabric Manager shortcut is moved to the All Users folder after the installation is complete. Also, if you subsequently uninstall Fabric Manager, the uninstall wizard is unable to remove the Fabric Manager menu item from the Start > Programs menu. To find the name of the Windows authentication domain that must be specified during installation, open a DOS window and type set. The alias USERDOMAIN indicates the active domain. If the client and server reside on different Microsoft domains, both domains must have trusts established between them or Fabric Manager will not be able to authenticate the client. Note The domain name required is not the internet domain (such as corp.mycompany.com); it is the Domain name Microsoft uses for authentication. Upgrading Fabric Manager You can upgrade to Fabric Manager 5.2.0 from versions 4.4.x, 5.0.x, or 5.1.x. All configuration data is migrated to 5.2.0. If you have earlier versions of Fabric Manager, you must first upgrade them to 4.4.x and then upgrade to 5.2.0. The following information cannot be migrated to Fabric Manager 5.2.0: • Topology settings • View customization • At-A-Glance window customization Note After you upgrade to Fabric Manager 5.2.0, you cannot discover a fabric with a seed switch running Fabric OS v2.x or lower. If, prior to the upgrade, you had discovered a fabric with the seed switch running Fabric OS v2.x, this fabric is available for monitoring after the Fabric Manager upgrade. 2-4 Fabric Manager Administrator's Guide Publication Number: 53-1000196-01-HP
