F-Secure Policy Manager Update / Proxy Update

Hi All,

 

I'm about to upgrade my current F-Secure Policy Manager from version 12:30 to a version 13.

I've done it on my test setup with no problems, but in my production environment I also need to upgrade my proxy servers. Currently when I installed my Proxy servers I did it by following this guide:

https://help.f-secure.com/product.html#business/policy-manager/12.40/en/task_6653FE3CB6EA48B6B73DF0497F1190CB-12.40-en - and it worked like a charm.

 

My question is though, now after browsing for the latest update I do also see a "F-Secure Policy Manager Proxy 13.00".

But when I installed the Proxy servers in the first place it was by using the standard "F-Secure Policy Manager". I know I need to use the F-Secure Policy Manager 13.00 for updating my "Central" installation, but what do I do about my Proxies? Should I just use the standard one and update them? Or should I do a new installation using the Proxy installer instead?

 

If you need any additional info - please let me know :)

 

//Thanks guys...

    PM13 introduces a new Policy Manager Proxy concept that is based on a modified PM.

    Please take your time and read the new manuals to understand the full complexity of the change.

    Do you have a link for the correct documentation I need to read?

    Hello,

     

    Sorry for my reply.

     

    Based on your URL from topic (and with change for build-num):

    https://help.f-secure.com/product.html#business/policy-manager/13.00/en

     

    Does it can be valid for your situation?

     

    Thanks!

    Hello

    in my case i was unable to upgrade FSPM-12.40 NG-Proxy just by installing FSPMP-13.00.83039-1.x86_64.rpm

    SUCCESS - I dont know, https://proxy_name:<HTTPS_port&gt; - not working, at FSPMS-13.00 Central server there is no new host PMProxy to import

     

    In old 12.40 was done:

    1. add admin.pub

    2. modify file fspms.conf

    /etc/opt/f-secure/fspms/fspms.conf
    additional_java_args="-Dh2ConsoleEnabled=true -DmaxSynchronousPackageRetrievalRequests=100"

    3. Use the fspmp-enroll-tls-certificate script to generate the proxy node certificate.
    /opt/f-secure/fspms/bin/fspmp-enroll-tls-certificate

    Hello tomczaki,
    Indeed PMS in proxy mode had name f-secure-policy-manager-server and that is the reason why it conflicts with f-secure-policy-manager-proxy, so it requires manual uninstallation - you did it correctly.
    I do not see in the console output “Starting fspms [OK]”. Could you please run /etc/init.d/fspms status and check if PMP is running. If not, start it please.

    after restart CentOS, everything is OK, I think. New host PMProxy is visible in PMServer
