Installing CSA MC with a Previous Version’s Database (Same System Installation)
This section addresses the procedure for backing up and importing a 5.0 database
as part of CSA MC V5.2. same system installation. (Scenarios 3 and 5 in
Figure 3-1).
In order to perform this type of migration you must install a V5.1 MC along with
the V5.2 MC. You must use V5.1 to migrate your V5.0 hosts and data to the V5.2
product schema. V5.1 is provided as an interim tool for bringing all your data into
V5.2 correctly. The V5.2 installation installs both MCs, first 5.1 and then 5.2,
with one reboot at the end.
Note If you are migrating from CSA MC V4.x in a same system installation
scenario, you must first upgrade to CSA MC V5.0. Refer to the CSA MC
V5.0 Installation Guide for that procedure. Once you’ve completed that
upgrade, you can use the following procedure.
Step 1 Uninstall CSA MCV5.0 per the instructions in your CSA MC V5.0 Installation
Guide. (If V5.0 uses a local database, during the CSA MC V5.0 uninstall
procedure, when prompted, make sure to select to backup the database. When the
uninstall completes, move the backed-up database to a different, network
accessible system.)
Step 2 Re-install that same system with the Windows 2003 R2 operating system.
Install CSA MC V5.2 as follows:
Step 3 Log on as a local Administrator on your Microsoft Server Windows 2003 R2
Standard or Enterprise system.
Step 4 Place the Management Center for Cisco Security Agents CD into the CDROM
drive. The welcome screen appears. Click Next to begin the installation. See
Figure 3-24. (If the installation does not start automatically, browse to the
setup.exe file on the CD and double click to begin the installation.)
