NOTE:  THIS WILL NOT WORK IN A WINDOWS ENVIRONMENT.

When moving the RSA Federated Identity Manager (FIM) database or applying any OS patches that may cause FIM to stop working, perform the following steps:

1. Export the secrets and samlconfig prior to OS patch install:

configtool EXPORTSECRETS password filename
configtool EXPORTSAMLCONFIG EXPORTSAMLFILEPATH

2. Apply O/S kernel patch

3. Reboot machine & start only the FIM admin server:

startadminserver

4. Delete or rename the encryptedfileds.properties file and rsaSSVS file. Both files can be found in the %FIMROOT%/RSASecurity/FIM26/rsaappserver.

5. Import secrets and smalconfig from step 1:

configtool IMPORTSECRETS password exportedconfig

6. Start FIM app server:

startmanagedserver
