I need to update RSA to the latest version. Currently running RSA Authentication Manager 8.3. What are the steps and how to go about updating Ops console, RSA Auth Manager and web tier.

if upgrading and the 8.4 update is on NFS or windows share, go direct to 8.4
if upgrading using a browser, install 8.3.0.6.0 first (8.3 patch 6) as it has a setting allowing large browser uploads
RSA Authentication Manager 8.3 Patch 6 - Update Download
(8.4 update is larger than a normal patch, as it will upgrade Suse 11.4 OS to Suse 12.3 in addition to the normal Authentication Manager patch...hence the need to change size allowed in browser upload)
----
In general just patch primary first, then replicas, in that order, one at a time.
Lastly, the latest webtier version is 8.4.0.8.0, so you can just wait on the webtier this whole time,
and then once the primary is 8.4.0.8.0...uninstall them, then reinstall 8.4.0.8.0 webtier

----
Also, any connections to and from Authentication Manager (agents, api, ldap...etc) prior to 8.4, it was optional to use TLS1.2 though we'd always negotiate TLS1.2 when possible. With 8.4 it is no longer optional, TLS1.2 is forced for all tcp connections, so consider if you need to deal with this.
MARK Craigen,
I would start with our documentation for Upgrading RSA Authentication Manager.
Use 000034558 - How to download RSA Authentication Manager 8.x full kits and service packs from RSA Link to download RSA Authentication Manager 8.4.
Patches, web tier updates an an updated extras.zip can be found at RSA Authentication Manager 8.4 Downloads. Note that patches are cumulative so you can go directly from RSA Authentication Manager 8.4 to RSA Authentication Manager 8.4 patch 8.
Regards,
Erica
