Upgrading Sun Convergence 1.0 to Convergence 1 Update 1

This section describes how to upgrade Convergence 1.0 to Convergence 1 Update 1. You can upgrade to Sun Convergence 1 Update 1 only by using the Communication Suite installer. To upgrade the Sun Convergence from Communications Suite Release 6 to Release 6 Update 1, you use the commpkg upgrade command.

The following table provides the file names for the various supported operating systems and platforms:

Operating System and Platform Filename
Solaris Sparc ci-6.1-0.01-SunOS_sparc.zip
Solaris x86 ci-6.1-0.01-SunOS_i386.zip
Linux ci-6.1-0.01-Linux_x86.zip

For details of operating system and platform support, see this list of operating system and platform requirements.

Upgrading Sun Convergence

Before you begin:

Be sure that the following software is running:

  • Application Server domain to which Convergence is deployed
  • All services configured for Convergence. This must include Directory Server and may include Messaging Server, Calendar Server, and Instant Messaging.

If this software is not running, the upgrade will fail to complete the installation and deployment of the upgrade patch. (The commpkg upgrade command invokes a patchadd command to upgrade Convergence 1.0 to Convergence 1 Update 1.)

To upgrade to Sun Convergence 1 Update 1, perform the following steps:

  1. Log in to the machine where you have installed Convergence.
  2. Unzip the Communications Suite installer zip file.
  3. Use the communication installer to upgrade Sun Convergence.
    ./commpkg upgrade
    

    At the command prompt, you will see a welcome message followed by the copyright information and license.

  4. Type yes to accept the license agreement.
    The communications suite installer will detect the installed components on the server and lists all the components that can be upgraded.
